  1. Actually I think it's a thick plastic eyelid rather than a stick on vinyl material... beauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say.
  2. Also, yesterday, around 6:00pm I think I spotted 09_Red_GT on Speen Street in Natick... thule roof racks...?
  3. Spotted this car again today. Upon further inspection its a debadged spec B, the wheels are actually black and red. A mysubie.com sticker on the back window... I think you must be working on the Wellesley High School project.
  4. Yeah, small batches. Last fall I made an Octoberfest that I thought was better than Sam Adams Octoberfest. This time I made a Hefeweizen, similar to Harpoon UFO. This place in Natick, Barleycorns, has all the equipment and ingredients you need, they let you use their brewing kettles and help you along the way. You come back in 2-3 weeks and bottle the beer... or put it in kegs like me . My roommate brews beer in our kitchen too. I live in Brighton, feel free to come by in 2 weeks I'll pour you a pint.
  5. Saturday around noon spotted an 05 or 06 SWP LGT Wagon in Natick parked in front of Barleycorns on Summer Street. I was inside brewing beer and missed you pull away.
  6. spotted a silver LGT on rt16 in wellesley today, it was de-badged and had black and pink wheels and a what looked like a chain link license plate frame
  7. I had my car dyno tuned March 5th. The tuning was done by Bren Tuning. He uses PSI Racing's (Auburn, MA) Dynapack 2000. Set-up: BNR EVO16G Invidia Catless Up Pipe Megan Racing Catless Down Pipe Infamous/Stromung 3" Cat Back AVO Top Mount GrimmSpeed EBCS Stock Air Box & Filter Stock Fuel Pump Stock Injectors Conditions: Mean Temp: 39 °F Average Humidity: 81 Elevation: 531' Prelude to Results: We did somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 pulls on the dyno before it was all said and done. It was pretty evident early on that the injectors and fuel pump weren't going to be able to keep up with the amount of air that this turbo was flowing. The stock fuel system couldn't keep up after 5500 RPM. There is obviously some power being left on the table. Results: Boost: 19 PSI @ 3300 RPM tapering to 16 PSI @ red line (6250 RPM) Horse Power: 291 @ 5300 RPM and staying relatively flat to red line Torque: 322 @ 3100 RPM Conclusion: The car drives awesome. The torque is right there whenever you need it. The turbo is very responsive. My tuner was impressed with how well the BNR EVO 16G was performing, and if he's happy I'm more than happy. ::rubbing my crystal ball:: "are fuel mods in my future?"
  8. I'll let you in on a few more... http://www.groupon.com http://www.buywithme.com http://www.coupme.com http://www.eversave.com http://offers.cbslocal.com/my-city/boston
  9. Spotted lordchilly, 7:45am on www.getmyperks.com via facebook.
  10. I'm going to retract this recommendation for the time being. I've been trying to work with them on a BNR turbo install, they don't really seem to helpful to me. They are giving me the vibe that they don't want anything to do with LGTs. I first went to them with info on the BNR EVO 16g, the suggested a larger TMIC and a fuel system up grade. They went on to say they do not recommend the AVO TMIC and would not install anything similar for anyone. Ultimately, DSG suggested I buy a $1,100+ SARD TMIC from Japan. All I wanted was a 16G with a conservative tune, stock fueling, and stock TMIC. Either there is a huge disconnect somewhere between my wants and the shops wants or I'm asking for something that can't be done. You decide.
  11. For a performance shop I'd recommend Dent Sport Garage (aka: DSG). They are in Norwood, about 20-25 min from Waltham. They do a ton of work on Subaru's. They are pretty involved with local motor sports too. I just had my 60k service as well as up pipe TBE installed there last friday. I'll be headed back soon to replace my turbo. They list a lot of their typical pricing online, I think it's pretty reasonable.
  12. OBP sedan in front of a church on washington st just 10 min ago, I would have honked, waved, and flashed my lights but it looked like you were in a funeral precession. sorry for your loss.
  13. On my way back from Sunday River, RT-26 in Maine around 11:15 yesterday I passed a silver LGT with black wheels.
  14. http://infolookup.yakima.com/default.aspx Vehicle: SUBARU Legacy 4dr Year Range: 2005-2009 Fit Type: Top Factory Rack: Naked Roof Weight Limit: 165 lbs Tower: Q Towers Crossbar Length: 48" CrossBars Recommended Fairing: 44" Fairing Front Clips: Q78-A Rear Clips: Q78-A
  15. You have to buy the "Q Towers" that clamp onto the roof. Most stores that sell the roof racks should be able to set you up with everything you'll need... Probably even show you how to put them on.
  16. Spotted a 05-06 black LGT w/ Texas plates on 95 north in RI yesterday around 2:00 I think. I was on my way back from Foxwoods.
  17. 07-09 Black LGT in the auto center parking lot at BJ's in Woburn. You must work there b/c I've seen it there a couple of times.
  18. ^ aah... parked in front of a white 05-06 LGT in the Woburn Mall parking lot today at 12:50. You had a fuzz buster on your dash, but otherwise stock looking.
  19. I think I spotted 09_Red_GT going east through Brighton center last night around 7:45. You had Thule racks on your car.
  20. Unfortunately that's just how it is in the city.
