    Rear end sway

    Thanks for the advice Nigel, I will have him check this out, I thought he said he already did but maybe he wasn't paying close enough attention and missed something. I took a closer look myself yesterday and it is pretty obvious that the wheel I hit is still toed out pretty bad, bad enough so...

    Rear end sway

    Yeah the fault totally lies with me and my “meathead-style” driving, I was playing when I shouldn’t have been with tires that should have been swapped out months ago. Mistakes are made and learned from and until they get that quantum physics thing figured out I won’t be able to go back in time...

    Rear end sway

    Alright, so I brought my car to a local mechanic to get it checked out and man what a ride that was!!! It was about 10 miles away and I never went above 30mph and had all I could to keep it on the road! Felt like I had 2 flat rear tires on ice, talk about white knuckling it. So the Mechanic...

    Rear end sway

    Ok so I was being a bit of an *$$ and playing in the snow, we have all done it, well most of us probably. I came around a right hand corner, and my rear end slid around a lot faster than I expected and I clipped the curb pretty hard on the driver side rear tire. I was like 100ft from my house...

    Hottest Subie ad ever!!!

    I love the writing in this add!!! I can't imagine if this guy was writing about an STI, it would probably be X rated...lol. It is hard to read, but soooo worth the squint. "Go to her, Let her cradle you in the softness of her highback reclining bucket seats. Surround yourself with the...

    Catted or Catless

    So I have the downpipe installed and flashed to stage 2 with a stock mid-pipe and stock 3rd cat in place. All I got to say is WOW!!! My plan is to either have a catless mid-pipe fabbed up or purchase one online if I can find one. Any suggestions as to what my best options are in regards to...

    Catted or Catless

    I ended up going with the Bosal Shorty for a few reasons. Positive 1st hand experience from Apollyon12 and from some of the things he and Nate said it seems like a good fit for me at this point. With a shorty it leaves me with some options and I like options. I am going to start out with the...

    Catted or Catless

    Yeah, it wouldn't replace the mid-pipe, just the down pipe, so it would still leave the one rear cat which I could leave or punch out to go catless with still having a cat look. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this pipe, good or bad. Seems to be a good design, divorced...

    Catted or Catless

    Catted or Catless

    Alright, back in the swing again. Took a vaca to go to Vegas for my Honeymoon, all I got to say is WOW that place is NUTSO!!! Maybe I will post some pics and videos in another thread. Well I don't want to highjack my own thread so on to my question. To continue were this left off a month and...

    Catted or Catless

    Really, well that changes everything!!! I have been ignoring any shorty pipe I have been seeing for sale, now I will have to go back and re-look. So if it is not the higher flow of a 3" exhaust, what is the major change in a downpipe upgrade? Is it just the cat removal in the downpipe or is...

    Catted or Catless

    But wouldn't you loose a good amount of performance staying with the stock mid-pipe due to the fact it is not 3"? I thought part of the whole point of upgrading the down pipe to make a Turbo-back was to go 3" all the way to increase flow?

    Catted or Catless

    Well if I went catless that is what I was going to do. Found one online for like $50, looks just like a highflow cat. Well I wasn't sure about the boost creap, I just saw a lot of posts when doing searches and trolling forums. I have an AP so I plan on going stage 2 as soon as I get the...

    Catted or Catless

    I have been trolling forums looking for a good deal, found a few ok deals out there just nothing that has grabbed my attention yet. Nothing that needs to be done overnight, I am still enjoying my newly installed Grimmspeed uppipe! I usually spend a couple of months researching things before I...

    Catted or Catless

    That make 4 for catted. Is there a good or bad high flow cat out there? I have been looking at some ebay cats that range from $50-$70 shipped or there are Magnaflow for over a $100. Anyone know if it matters if that cat is before the bend or after?

    Catted or Catless

    I was actually leaning more toward that. I am debating on: 1. if I should pick up an aftermarket high flow cat and have it welded in either somewhere after the bend so it is more visible when being inspected or right after the where it attach's to the turbo. I heard it gets hot faster and...

    Catted or Catless

    Rumford is in Oxford County, no sniffer test yet but who knows what our political leaders may have in mind for the future. Gotta keep our liberal Mass neighbors happy so they keep bringing there money north right.

    Catted or Catless

    I see a lot of debate on this subject and I am getting ready to upgrade my downpipe so here is the question. Are you catted or catless and what are you thoughts? My thoughts from what I have read are: Catless - obviously much much cheaper +2 maybe 3hp over catted a little louder...don't...

    Uppipe Questions

    Ok, so I am going with a Grimmspeed pipe ceramic coated. Everywhere I have looked, including the vendors here, said there is a backorder of about a month. I have waited this long, I guess I can wait another month. I am back to debating on whether or not to attempt the install myself. The...
