I gave her something stiff and something blue

Slapped on some new parts I bought off "PlusONE TSX".

An Ingalls's ETD and an R-Crew oil cap, nothing to major just thought I'd share.

BTW the ETD does add more vibration upon startup, but during normal driving it's nothing too major or unbearable. But it def does make shifting more precise.

Anywho, enjoy!

That blue cap looks excellent in the middle of blue metallic paint

Umm, is that ETD supposed to add power or what ?

Stabilizes the motor so that it doesn't move around as much under load. While it doesn't really translate to any additional power, it makes the car much less prone to wheel-hop, and if you have a manual transmission, it makes shifting feel much more solid when running through the powerband. The trade-off is that it causes some in-cabin vibration, which is worse the colder it is. I've had mine installed since December and have enjoyed it.
