So it snowed here yesterday and all last night but not enought to make me worry about plowing through it with my front lip and messing it up....until a giant truck in front of me drops an ice/snow chunk from his under carriage right in front of me :evil:. Looks like it just pulled it down a little bit right in the middle, gotta tighten a few screws back up and hopefully it'll be all better.

Got the Catback today, install on Staurday and tune on Tuesday! Got a little surprise with the deliveries...2 COBB heat shields!! That'd be helpful if I had a sweet twin turbo setup, but I think I owe one to Defined haha.
Also: Do I need to replace the dp to turbo gasket when putting om the new dp?

I don't think you NEED to...but it's always a good idea to replace the gasket when you do something like that.
Thats what I was thinking. My only issue is that Subarus hours dont conicide with my work hours since they are pretty much the same so getting one is a bit of a hassle. Might just go Saturday morning or possibly tomorrow morning right as they open. Also have to get my emissions test done tomorrow morning. Ugh.

Use his idea, he's smarter than me. :lol:
:lol: I rock the lip in winter too, since I don't drive the STi all the time. Who are you getting tuned by?
Harvey at the boost creep ltd off I-25 and highway 66. He is like five minutes from my parents house, which is where im installing the exhaust, so its super convenient.
Didn't check the site last night and picked up an oem gasket this morning since i hadnt read the copper seal idea. Oh well I guess, but thanks for the info! Im not gonna replace the donut gasket since i hear it should be fine, even though i'm close to 70,000 miles. I hate that my STi is my DD, but love it at the same time. Also passed emissions this morning, woohoo!!
Thanks! Yeah, when you call him about anything hes super enthusiastic and im pretty stoked to have him working on my car.
So after a hard pull on my way home the car started smoking a lot under the hood. My radiator hose disconnected on the engine side I found out after pulling over. Should I be worried about the car running for a minute with the hose off?? Potential ddamage? I was freaking out. Thanks for help!
