Got the final repair done from our "free" trip to SeaWorld. The skirt/rocker looks brand new. Jason's work is superb!!! Looks like the day I bought it and like nothing ever happened.

I just got done installing my JB+ Quick Install Tuner that I purchased off of fromwrxto330ci . Even though it says it takes a few "race" cycles to kick it, I felt it immediately. There is like no turbo lag anymore. Comfort now feels like Sport (I only drove a few miles to get a pizza). http://www.burgertuning.com/f_series...all_tuner.html

took the car out to an empty Meijer's parking lot covered in snow. with the traction control off had a blast throwing the car sideways and drifting around for about 10 min until the PoPo showed up. they didn't mind except that it was causing alarm for people on the other side of the parking lot cause they can hear my Meister's screaming!

Installed the JB4. Running map 1 right now. Sensors weren't too bad. Kept trying to run the OBD2 cable where the hood latch cable ran through the firewall. Realized there was another hole, so I went in raw. All done...but I think I have aids now.

Installed n63intake.com Intake on my car.....

Bought in January, finally got installed in December...only sat in my trunk for 11 months...

So far, 1st impressions, the kit is well made, and the support is 2nd to none.

from a performance perspective i can tell a difference from the seat of my pants, specially when cruising at highway speeds, and during a passing maneuver.

I haven't yet driven it at night, when it gets cold here, (ie below 40), i'm sure i'll notice a difference there.

The big difference though is it does wake up the car....you can hear the motor now...inside the cabin.....just the right amount of grumble

overall i'm satisfied with the $$ spent on this kit.

Love it! I get a lot of compliments on it. I just always have to remember to park 1 foot or 2 away from the parking bumper, even on stock suspension.

Dropped the car off at the dealer for the recall notice i got and here's what they gave for a loaner. I must say i always wanted to test drive one and the darn thing drives pretty sweet!

Thought i would share this with you guys but when i dropped the car off at the dealer yesterday morning for the recalls i got, when i pulled up to the service lane they saw me and they hit the remote switch that automatically rolls up the bay doors and when i drove up to the service desk everybody and i mean everybody stopped what they were doing and just looked at me because of how loud the exhaust was and probably didn't help as the exhaust tone amplified when going into the service building. i was a bit worried that maybe it was annoyingly loud and when i shut it off a few of the reps and a mechanic walked over and asked "sir, what kind of exhaust is that?" and i replied "Meisterschaft's! " one of the service reps said they're use to hearing the M Performance exhaust all the time pulling up but he said those Meisterschaft's have a sweet exotic tone to it.

I was bored... and thought bout how it's always really hard to see cf lips compare to the bumper. so I did this.... it's pretty subtle but I think it works... at least for me.
