Re: New daily driver: 2004 WRX

Well, last week before Dom was born I wrapped and spray sealed the up-pipe and downpipe with some extra stuff I had laying around. Found out from a friend that wrap is approximately 109 times easier to work with when you get it wet, wrap it then let it dry. Who'd a thunk it?

Anyways, on to some pics. I didn't have quite enough for the entire downpipe, but I really didn't care as the unwrapped part is underneath the car anyways and would probably just come unravelled and turn to shit in a hurry.

Now I just have to find some time to get these things installed and get this puppy tuned with the little chitlin runnin around.



You might also notice that I didn't use the "header wrap ties", which are kind of like steel zipties for those who don't know. I chose not to use them not only because they are waaay overpriced, but also because they like to get razor sharp and cut the crap out of your hands especially once you trim them. So I said screw it and used some sweet hose clamps instead.
