havent taken the car out since turning up the boost from 6 psi. on 6 psi with a bad 2.6 60' time (45 psi on street tires, fully loaded) I went 15.5 @ 91. I'd like to be high 14s as I sit right now around 8-9 psi. I'm still on the restrictive msp downpipe to p5 stock n/a exhaust with mazdaspeed p5 axleback. I really want to do the pope 3" downpipe with a cutout. I need to stop modding my daily and focus on the racecar instead 
i have no idea what youre talking about...(yes)...Copy cat

Awesome. Well if you were pulling against my MSM, it would have put up a bit more of a fight... (13.73 @ 103.2)

Running Hid on mine, got kit off eBay. Had to separately get a space for bulb and connector in order to get a good space for retaining clip to grab on. That was the only issue I had.

so i installed new rims on my car the other day, and now i have an e-brake and ABS light on. im not sure if the fact that the rims r on make a difference.. but yea. i checked the brake fluid n its ok so im still confused.
on a different note.... every once in a while my car will be running fine, usually when im cruising on the highway around 55-65mph n it will putter for second, hesitate, then the CEL will come on... but the car will then run fine. n then ill turn the car off n the light will be off.

Swapped pass and drivers side AWR motor mounts (hello vibes! haha) and deleted the cruise control from the engine bay and steering wheel. Replaced the drivers side rear wheel bearing (thanks to MP5t for the How-To). Then gave her a good look over for my first auto-x next Sunday.

dumb question but can u adjust camber with tokico blues or is that only with coilovers. would like slight camber in the rear. maybe. not some ridiculous camber lol
Your alignment shop can put some camber bolts in the back for you. Just make sure they have some when you call to make your appointment and get an estimate on how much extra they will be for installation. Some places might do them for free but my shop wanted an additional $90 to install them, lulz. But Tokico blues don't have camber plates, if that's what you're asking.

ok so when i install my tokico blues, whenever they come, n i would want a slight camber i cant do that? or they jsut cant be adjusted easily?
I don't think Tokico's have slotted struts but you can do it yourself, though I wouldn't recommend it. That just seems a little ghetto. But I'm sure a lot of cats have done it without any issues. As far as dialing in any more negative camber with your Tokico's I don't believe you can without modifying the struts or adding camber bolts.

Used it as a pickup truck today:
