  1. So havnt posted in years, but I still own my Spec B I bought new. This last couple months I finally did some power upgrades when the stock downpipe rusted in two. So now I have a Cobb catted DP to back up the SPT V2 cat back I bought....10 years ago lol. Then I bought a Grimmspeed stage 1, but held off installing it until I could get it on in to the local Subaru speed shop. I read Grimmspeeds original post about there intakes and was afraid of running lean, even with the Cobb OTS stage 2 map. In to the Dyno it went, where it made 230whp and 290lb/ft. Which seems fine, and totally in line with what others see. However driving it I hear pops now during shifts when in Sport and accelerating brisk to hard. In Intel it stutters slightly on hills, which it hasnt done since I put a OTS Stage 1 on it years ago. Never had a car dyno tuned before, no idea on the etiquette. Is this a shitty tune? Do you take it back to them and tell them to fix it? Is it 12 year old parts I need to start replacing (101k miles BTW, lots of sitting while I was on deployments) or do I need to contact Cryotune for some e-tune help?
  2. Just tackled this today. Wouldnt have made it without the encouraging posts about the driver side being possible because it didnt seem like it would be. Lost some coolant out of the reservoir which caused some pretty heavy steam during the shake down drive, but seems like I have enough to make it to the dealership to get more. This is the first winter for the Subaru having lived in CA since I bought it, but then the Navy moved me. So I should know tomorrow if it worked, temps are supposed to dip below 20 F.
  3. Definitely not a new idea, I know I have kicked around the idea of buying a set of big gauge ignition cables for the Jeep. Im not a huge audiophile, so I cant tell you if larger and more consistent voltage would help your speakers. In the Jeep world it means your electrical system is better at handling simultaneous loads of extra lights, winches, CB, etc. Guys who have more demanding electrical loads from increased speakers systems would see the same benefit. CB guys who want the best sound and least static go crazy grounding every single body panel on the car with heavier gauge stuff, so maybe that would help with sound from speakers as well, not sure there though.
  4. Just ordered one, hope to get because its for Dad's 06 LGT as a Xmas present. I forsee father son garage time on the 26th.
