My newest mod, Pioneer AVIC-F700BT.








Had some free time yesterday so I bought a can of Plasti-Dip and did my center console.




Next up is a Downpipe/AP Stage 2, then its a DEFI gauge package. =)

Got a JDM STI strut bar installed a couple days ago. Figured I add a little something to the engine bay.

Got my COBB AP V2 and flashed to stage 2 recently.




I was running it with an Invidia Catless Downpipe for a while, but the smell was getting to me and boost creep was a big issue. Got a great price for an Invidia divorced catted downpipe from a friend.
Performance wise its GREAT, it seems to flow just almost as well as catless but without the dangerous boost creep. Holds 19psi in 4th and 5th gear. Best of all, NO RAW FUEL smell.

Updated mods include:

Perrin divorce downpipe with custom 100 cell metal substrate cat welded on, absolutely highest flow cat I could find.

Borla XR-1 3" full cat back. Here is a small sound clip of the setup.
