The 2 ride height measurements that are typically used are axle height (this is what is shown in the manual and it is a measurement to a specific point on the the aluminum subframe under the car). The other is to the middle of the fender arch and mush easier to measure.

The AWE exhaust is interesting. I wonder what the inside of that muffler looks like. Chambers? Internal X?

it appears to be a cross pipe with a chamber in the front that allows the air to cross over.

Markski Tuning is having his Black Friday sale, better check it out! Word on the street is it will be 50% off tuning. 😱

I plugged the car into the trickle charger for the first time in a long time since it hasn't been driven for a couple weeks and it's going to be at least a few more before it gets driven again.

I can confirm that the tune from Markski changes the car. I've got whatever one is the Billet K16's and the associated upgrades, and it's magical. I drove a stock one for the first time the other evening and wow, what a difference.

Well, the proof is in the pudding. Hearing about it and FEELING it are two totally different things. The stock shifter is also garbage.

Finalizing last bits of this motor refresh and turbo upgrade and of course the plenum had a crack on the top piece. Was hoping for first fire on this next week now I need to find a used plenum to steal this piece off of. If anyone has it send me a PM

While I was grilling the turkey I decided to tackle the master and accumulator. Master sure is fun in that tight spot. Accumulator stubby wrench and freezer bag trick were great tips picked up on the forums. Turkey was done so have to wait on the bleeding but hoping the motive bleeder makes it easy as I have seen. Happy Thanksgiving!
