  1. I'm back at work! 5250 Performance is taking appointments again!
  2. My hand hurts sooooo much. I'm ready to cut it off.
  3. You should be ok with a stage 1 tune. You didn't change anything physical and the dealership is only looking for physical stuff. Before you can diagnose this, you have to clean up alot of that oil. Then look again after ad rive and figure out where the oil is exactly coming from.
  4. The Boost Creep and 5250 Performance 14116 Valley Dr Longmont, Co 80504 http://www.5250Performance.com 970-535-0539 http://www.theboostcreepltd.com 303-219-6071 AWD Dyno Tuning, Installs, Fabrication
  5. If you can intercept that wire you can re-reverse the signal with a single relay. Then there isn't a fitment issue.
  6. 5250 and TheBoostCreep have 2 dyno days and EFI 101 coming up in April. Check AWDPirates for details.
  7. local dealership doesn't know about that. not in the owners manual either
  8. And how are you checking the level without a dipstick.... and if you say you make your own, how do you know what length to make it?
  9. Why do you like that better? It's a complete bonehead move on the part of Subaru. Now you can't check fluid levels without doing a full drain and refill. So now, if you find a small leak or a puddle of fluid under the car, and you determine it is gear oil, you have no idea how much is actually left in the gearbox.
  10. there's one on each wheel.. i think... i know the front wheels each got one
  11. that's a old BMW trick. they need all the extra power they can get
  12. I thought you were talking dyno numbers. I don't use corrections on my drag times. So you are disagreeing? A cold IC and a Hot exhaust don't make the most power?
  13. IC cold, everything else you want hot. That's why people wrap their exhausts in heat wrap and use turbo blankets. I'm not gonna sit here and argue about stuff that is proven. The colder the IC, the more power you can make. To get the IC the coldest, you need to have melting ice directly on it. I try to make two simple, valid points and some people just have to pick their thong out of their ass.
  14. I never said that and my corrections are all SAE.... so unless you know something they don't, master Rao
  15. yeah, your'e right. My average for runs without ice was in the upper 14's, then with ice it was in the low 14's. Must be complete garbage numbers. The ice was a plecebo. All hail RAO! Master of all things internet.
  16. cause iceing your IC for fastest times at the dragstrip is alot similar to setting up an entire system that stays on the car, all the time. Your front tires pull just as much water onto the line. What about the idiots that drive their AWD straight through the water box and do a "burnout". No one yells at those asshats. Back when I was stock. I was pulling 14.7's all night. Then I dumped some ice on my IC. 14.01 I think the ice is worth it. Especially if you want to have fun at the strip and don't care about max performance on the street.
  17. But there are much better, safer ways to do it. You cannot argue that meth is not a hassle. It's an entire extra system that needs maintaining. Nitrous is easier and nets more than 50hp... does that make it a good choice? I'm not saying meth doesn't net gains. I'm saying it's not worth the hassle for the majority of people that choose that route. I see it in my shop all the time.
  18. In the above pics... all you guys with ice bags on your TMICs..... Take the ice OUT of the bag. If you really wanna to it right, freeze some larger blocks at home the night before and set the bare blocks right on the IC. The physical act of melting the ice is what absorbs the most heat. Also, the melting water running through the IC cools it all the way through. A bag of ice only cools the top of the IC and by the time you're staging, it's warm again. It should be done dripping by the time you stage. If anyone says anything, complain about all the RWD guys driving through the water pit with their front wheels.... they don't dry off during a burnout.
