I wouldn't eliminate any possibilities, but start with the more obvious things like loose heat shields first.

Damn!

That's a serious backlog but more than a week or so is excessive in getting heads reworked. They should be done sooner rather than later

Lol. I'll probably reuse them. I really like the sound. I just diy the bracket and connections. The horns are pretty cheap on their own.

Happened last Tuesday but honestly nothing happened to me at all. Didn't feel any after effects. Slightly embarrassing to get into an accident where I lost control because of snow/ice. http://i.imgur.com/phHTwPq.jpg

Pains me to say it but I'm pretty sure my GT will be getting totaled by my insurance. I walked away without a scratch not even shaken up a bit. The car between age, milage, and damage will probably be a total loss. The car gave me trouble but I still enjoyed driving it so much.

Ej25 doesn't have either of those. Lobes from the cam ride on the buckets to open the valves. Definitely want to double check your clearance when you torque everything back down and you may need to replace buckets to get the right clearance.

I'm thinking these are supposed to be installed in pairs

Just a swag, but pertaining to the heat inside the car issue any chance the blend actuator has failed in your legacy? The coolant temp seems to be more than enough heat to warm up a car, but if the air isn't being directed through the heater core it'll take forever

Have you tried the vag-com cable with btssm? I was contacted within a day when I had an issue connecting the first time.

Thinking about your values, get the values from btssm first. The other values may have been uncorrected like dgooghue alluded.

Those numbers are way off what you should have. Vaccum is usually 18-20in hg at warm idle. Looking for a vaccum leak would be my first order of business. Btssm says k-line unless you have a patched tune that supports can bus with that adapter.

I'm having all kinds of trouble opening the log. I've tried like 3 different excel viewers and they all have issues. Granted it's on my phone. You notice any issue with coolant temp or knock events?

I live in MA and they salt the crap out of the roads. My car has lived in MA it's entire life. The subframe has spots with some surface rust, but no place at all is it rusted through.

Manifold pressure : ensuring good vacuum Knock Coolant temp Afr maybe Btssm only allows you to log 4 fields at a time? Could have sworn I logged more than that.

Get a vag-com cable and usb otg adapter if you can. Ut works and it's cheap. Just as insurance incase the new Bluetooth adapter doesn't work out

I run it on android mobile with an adapter

Btssm works with just a basic VAG-com cable on mine. Data logs everything I need. Should be supported for link lx on k-line. Shoot an email to developer. Quick to respond if you need help from my experience.

Made my own bracket from a steel tie from home depot. Little bit of primer and rattle can flat black. Not the best picture6 http://i.imgur.com/KLRFEIc.jpg Wired it myself. Just used the relay that came with the horns. Fused 12V from battery, signal from factory horn wire, and a ground for the relay. It's not super neat in a loom but it's not a rats nest either. There are guides on wiring them up.

I have the sharptones and I definitely dig the sound. It's only been a little less than two years so far but holding up well

10LGT You'll definitely hear more noise from the transmission with the mount and the polyurethane transmission crossmember bushings. It's not obnoxious and the positive engagement feel is worth it imo. I spot your ride from time to time in New Bedford

Flywheel on 5th gen is single mass anyway so a new flywheel for you. I just had mine resurfaced when I did my clutch.

I'm running Akebono ceramics in the front. Put those in when I did my front brakes and painted the calipers recently. Very happy with them for daily use.

Hold the window up/down button until hitting both limits. Once or twice. Should be fine after that.

Maybe one of the breathers for the valve cover is cracked it looks to be more dirt than oil.
