I got her new Perrin filter installed a week or two ago and have been doing some logging and tweaking of her tune to help compensate for it since it flows more air than the SPT filter did.

The turbo and BOV are now louder with the new filter. I also want to thank Shane @ DB for giving me pointers/tips on WRX tuning via AIM as I sit in the garage making the changes!

Getting new tires mounted tonight on the WRX.

The stock tires are nearing 40k, probably still have another 20k of tread life left, but one is already patched and another is leaking bad enough for me to drive Janelle to work yesterday and today. They were never very good tires to begin with though; the wet performance has always been incredibly disappointing.

Mike @ Torque Solution wanted Adam from MAP to get some new bushings test fit on a WRX so Adam called me over this morning and thew Janelle's WRX into the air to install the "positive shift kit" see below:

Overall not a huge difference, but the important thing is fitment was perfect which was the point of this. Thanks to Mike for the free bushings and thanks to Adam for installing them while I drank a RC Cola from his fridge :)
