well....this has been a busy weekend! i put Emily's valentines day present on yesterday (H pipe) and worked on two other cars last night, and today Chris (hitman WRX) came by to get his new injectors and fuel pump installed....


we did a little more then that.....



he was excited to have a new VF34 come in....




and here is a side by side comparison of the stock turbo vs. the VF34





real men have pink injectors!!!!



here is a shot of the EGT probe installed in the header....look at that beautiful wrapping job.....[/brag]



of course, she will smoke like hell with ass loads of coolant on the header....


can YOU see the injectors? gotta love subaru for ease of working on....once the infamaous bitch brackets are off, injectors can be changed in about 20minutes.....but it takes about an hour or so (longer if you havent done one before, much less five ) to get that fucking bracket off



and of course, here is Chris, looking for a dropped bolt....like normal!

that is my personal shop.....just got most things in there now, still finishing power (running off of an extension cord at the moment...with a generator to run the lift)

once the ground thaws, i gotta dig the ditch and lay the cable, then wire the lights in the shop up

not to mention build a damn door for the front......


a tarp works better then nothing, i guess
