We'll see. I have an 07 sti to be shipped down to STL, and we're going to rip and replace everything on the 02.

I'll sport that for a while, and then in a year or two I'll save up and get a different car that's a little bigger for the family.

My wife has a forrester, so we'll see.

I'll list the kit up for sale as soon as it's totally off the car.

They gave me what I wanted for the car and kit for just the car. So I get to sell the kit.

The buyer said the car was just that clean, I think his wife is going to drive it??

I've actually been a Honda guy since 1999, when I was .... ugh, well under 20.

This is my first kind of foray into the scooby's...

The Acura is gone.

The turbo kit will be going up for sale in the near future.

The Hondata will be going up for sale also.
The person didn't want the car with the turbo?!

GATO Performance said they could build me a manifold and intercooler setup.. But I'd have to give up my daily driver for too long.. I'll be ct supercharged after summer season. Still debating on the aftercooler.

He didn't want the turbo because he's a new dad, and the car was in great shape.

It's a good deal. I've been paying property taxes and insurance on it, and have only put a few hundred miles on it all year.

The friend that bought it called it "fresh" and "clean".

I'm not sure what these terms reference, but it was clean, and undamaged.

The kit will be totally picture taken and listed up.

As far as someone totaling the car after boosted, if you're in a spot with out great expanses of road to cover, I could see the turbo leading to problems.

The car picks up speed in a really aggressive manner, and since the cu2 is fairly confident, you don't really realize how fast you're going until it's too late. That and the stock brake/pad combo is pretty sad.

Traphouse? More like craphouse, amirite?

I'm not sure about that Patrick-the-starfish-from-Spongebob color, but hanging the can of TouchUp Krylon from the bumper is an interesting choice.

I guess I'm saying that isn't my cup of tea.

No camber, true. But I can still hear those tires screaming in agony from that stretch. Truth be told, I have a soft spot in my heart-unit for a little bit of stretch but that sidewall is actually concaved...
