window tint should be your next "mod"
It's MN, so they don't let us get away with too much tint, I'm not sure the juice is worth the squeeze. just one more reason to get pulled over. :)

50% on all windows except front window, you can have zero tint on the front. Anyone have pics of 50% tint? Is it worth it?

what'd you use for the seat delete, YAYCANDY, ive seen the aluminum panel kit but im sure shipping is $$$ for something that big

I never seen a kit available before but its custom Highstrength aluminum, still very light. Its like 10lbs or so. Maybe alittle more with more sound deafening added. Didnt really do it for weight reduction, im a single dude and rather have the seats protected in storage. But an update, i got it pretty quiet in the cabin. I dont even notice the seats missing anymore. With just metal panel its was pretty loud from the trunk nvh, tires, axles, exhaust.

Its all 1 piece bent to the same angle the seats are. Im sure it would be difficult to ship, its strong. My 180lb *** can jump up and down on it and it dont flex but im sure the shipping companies will find a way to damage it

I got the gauge pod from Mike at ecopowerparts.com
How was the gauge hookup routing? Just down the open dash areas to under the dash and through the firewall? Ive wanted it for awhile. Just never mapped out all a spot to fish the wires and hoses

Hot day out. Testing a whole new intercooler setup. No meth. Water to air intercooler. I see around 5 degree difference from ambient. So on a 100 degree day it still would not cut back timing.
At highway cruise. On wot is goes 40 degrees below ambient

The max is still from the air to air intercooler as sct only refreshes the min max after you exit datalog mode. Even if you turn off the car for 2 weeks the max stays the same as it was

It wasn't very hard, I took apart the dash just to get a good idea of where to run the wires. Basically it's a straight shot from the center speaker area down to the driver's footwell and then I found the rubber grommet through the firewall into the engine bay and then down to the corresponding sensors.

Yea mine has had enough of my **** also at 82k miles. Thinking about just replacing it and the ****** if i ever make it to 100k. Its just acting up in the gears more often now with locking and unlocking. Hard to tell but maybe its the tune also.

Ha t r a n n y is a bad word, better hope the rest of our messed up society dosnt stumble across this forum lol

Locking and unlocking makes me wonder how do you know it’s not just your clutches slipping? Guess in a log you can tell it’s the TC
