    Under the hood temperature regulation

    Indeed, the heat will vaporize moisture if there is enough heat to vaporize it all before it cools down. If you live in a humid climate, that most likely may not be possible.

    Both only came out this month. Us skeptics will need to wait until there are some reviews on them.

    Under the hood temperature regulation

    Getting the turbo coated works too, but it never made my list. I can't remember why right now, Maybe fuji has some input on that?

    Under the hood temperature regulation

    Header wrap really isn't a good idea unless you live in dry climates. Header wraps keep moisture in. If your outdoor temperature doesn't allow the wrap to dry up, then it will create potential weakening issues in the future. Ceramic coating is the best. It's not cheap, but you have to remember...

    New Perrin CAI doesn't require retune.

    Completely understandable. Head over to the Mishimoto website. The engineering report is an amazing read. It explains almost everything doubted here. They've also said that it's been tested on stock vehicles as DDs. Right now though, it's Perrin and Mishimoto's word until testimonials come out.

    What car would u give your STI up for?

    I would never give up my STI. Eventually though, it will become my winter beast. The summer car will become a 911 once the STI is built to my end goals. The STI can play with the big boys any day and that's what makes it an engineering marvel.

    Wash it! I'm stock and I'm getting my full gauge setup before I even start to need a tune. I've always managed my projects by knowing the base facts or values before making changes. It's not required obviously, but the more information you get familiar with and the more data you look, at then...

    How do you guys deal with this??

    I usually will park next to other higher priced cars or cars who have been given tlc. If none are there, then I'm parking solo at the end of the lot. I then turn to my wife to get the look and say: "THINK OF THE PEOPLE YOU WILL MEET!"

    Front bumper replacement (Hatchbacks)

    Fender liners are the same? I thought I saw someone mention they needed to be replaced. Then again, maybe in his case the liners were busted too and needed to replace them...

    New Perrin CAI doesn't require retune.

    Do any of you realise the new Perrin CAI has an air straightener that controls the imperfections in the air flow to be the same as the oem intake air flow? hence, no tune required. Mishimoto came out with this same design a couple weeks before Perrin. They even published the engineering report...
