Well car has been at the shop for a few weeks. They have been real busy but gettin around to my car now. Stopped by yesterday and they finished up the downpipe and I put my traction bar on. Intercooler piping needs some modification to work with the traction bar but shouldnt be a big deal. Stopping in tomorrow as they will be finishing the aluminum exhaust. Here is a pic of traction bar installed and the downpipe.

314whp at 15psi. Little better than 309whp at 28psi! Pulls hard. Traction bars and lsd are awesome, gotta get used to the shorter gearing though. Liking the compression so far, way more responsive than with the vitaras.

Hopefully some track times soon. And it is tuned one ectune.
Scared the shit outta me tonight. Put fresh gas in to see if that would cure the breaking up in 3rd. It did not. Did a couple pulls to make sure, saw 12.5 on one. Went to go again and make sure what rpm cutting out at and whatnot. And it just shut off. I immediately thought it blew up/spun bearing or something of that nature. Also no cel came on either. Pushed car to a gas station. Checked oil, was spot on, no leaks or anything. All seemed good. Started it up. Oil pressure was good and no noticable noises. Back to the dyno...

That is what I am hoping! Taking it back to the shop today sometime. I was just like wtf though, just my luck! I was thinking about parting it out as I was pushing it. haha

Thanks. Headed up to dyno now. Should know what's up by end of today. And second spins but third is a solid pull. I must say it is definitely a lot different than last year. Low comp, .63ish a/r hotside, 27psi, looooong gears, pulled like a freight train. Now with high comp and .48a/r it spools much faster and feels like I am rippin through gears.
