What did you do to your ride today?
-
Front brakes were done about a month ago, finished up the rears last night.
Centric Premium rotors and StopTech Street Performance pads all around now.
-
AEM Failsafe O2/boost gauge showed up yesterday, couldn't help but power it up on my desk at work...
-
Spring over axle conversion and bigger wheels and tires last night. No more scraping out of driveways and 65 mph trailer tires (had a blowout a month ago).
-
a couple days ago i installed an ARB awning on my roof rack of my Subaru
-
Nice, I like that!
-
upgraded my fuel pump my in 90 camaro last friday and redid my tune a bit
-
One of the best tuners on LegacyGT.com was running a special on e-tunes so I couldn't resist - getting new tunes for both gas and e85. Heck of a deal for $200.
I got the new WBO2 installed half-ass so I'm ready to pull logs. I hope to button up the install this week, wiring up the failsafe output to cut the EBCS signal and getting everything tucked away nicely.
-
Results are in, +6 HP, +11 TQ over my old gas etune, +6.6 HP, +21.4 TQ over my old e85 dyno tune.

Wrapped up a couple projects today.
Finished wiring up the failsafe output of my AEM wideband. Now it will use a relay to cut the signal to the boost control solenoid and drop me down to wastegate boost if I go lean or over boost.
Replaced the seatbelt in my driver's rear reel. Old one had an ugly stain.
Ran a 1/0 lead from the battery to the back. PITA. For future stereo use and for the following mod...
Rewired my fuel pump with 10 awg wire. Feeding it battery/alternator power from the 1/0. Stock was 18 awg, not enough - typically only saw 11.5v at the pump. I should have 13v+ now.
Pic below is the new 10 awg soldered to the stock wiring. Mmm, beefy.
My back hurts, lol.
-
installed a borla header on my car cause the factory one was leaking.
-
Put in a new Optima Yellowtop over lunch.

Ha! Pretty sure that's the manufacturing date, and while it's been on the shelf a little longer than I'd like, it sounds like that's pretty normal.
<snip> When I visit our retail partners, most of the batteries I see on shelves were manufactured within the last 12-18 months. <snip>

www.twitter.com/optimabatteriesThere's a lot of anecdotal stuff out there about lower quality since they moved manufacturing to Mexico. I guess I'll find out. Good news is they bumped the warranty up to 3 years now. -
