JDG, THIS^^^ [:(]

I am hoping that maybe Ron would be able to sell me whatever 'rally spec' setup that they develop out of the Silver/Neomax base coilovers, since I CANNOT afford to be handing them $1600+ for NOTHING. [wink]

Yessir, working on some 1/4" spacers as well for the front and rear to get a tiny bit of lift. What happened with Panda?
I was even thinking about pairing the B6es up with the Swift Spec Rs, and using those spacers someone on here mentioned/posted in the past (which I just CANNOT find the thread about now [:(]) to bring them up to at least factory ride height, but still get the benefits of a higher than factory, linear spring rate. [wink]

Went to the junkyard for a bumper cover but it was already gone, managed to pick up one turbomac from it.


Don’t know how the hell he was running a 245/35/17 without flares. Hope he made it out okay tho.

That looks like he rolled it possibly, not good. Those are not only wide but 35 series must be brutal on the street.

Taking advantage of the cool and wet weather here in Florida to practice managing lift off oversteer. First time it happened I was super surprised since the car is FWD and don't wanna be caught off guard again.

That happened to me with my previous vehicle. The back end lost traction on an exit ramp, didn't downshift quick enough, car stalled and the weight shifted to the rear, not a pretty sight. I was so pissed at myself.

After 15k miles and 5k of those with a opened up exhaust, I finally got around to installing a symposer delete. I don't think I can hear a difference over the exhaust.

I've attempted to install my symposer delete probably 4 times, and every tool and strategy I try never seems to get those crappy clamps of the charge pipe. I'm sure I'll get it eventually, but to you have any tips?

That sucks to hear. On the other hand, once you get it right it can be pretty fun sending the tail out on an open corner.[driving]

I started to feel that pain during my install. But after getting the evap hose and the symposer box moved aside, extended reach needle nose pliers worked for me. Though I am pretty convinced that using those cable-style spring clamp pliers would have been less frustrating. The needle nose pliers kept slipping off.

I always forget how tiny and tightly packed this car is until I try to install a new part.

I bought a set of curved needle-nose pliers specifically for this project. Even then, it was a PITA (because they'd slip off), but it only took a few minutes. I don't think I've used the pliers since then and might never have another need for them, but it was worth it.

Took some pictures... can’t ever have enough ecoboosts!!

Love them both for very different reasons.. now I just need to talk the wife into trading her Jeep Wrangler for a Raptor with the new 3.5 EB..... don’t think she will let me get a third vehicle.. at least not without a lot grief... no nookie for awhile... might still be worth it.

I'd have to find a safe spot for that. Not comfortable using the same exit ramp with my FiST, though I do have to say it handles that curve VERY well and that is with snow tires.

Topped off the original battery on my '15 with some distilled water. It was built in August of 2014.

I tried several time and after getting frustrated gave up each time. eventually I got a new induction hose and when I had that out I attempted again. I had some really long bent nose pliers. you just got work it in there, but for me once I got that clamp off and moved down the hose the battle just began. it was like my hose was glued to the symposer. I had to use a flat head to pry it off. super pain but its on now.
