I resolve to purchase some wheel paint for the stock wheels and touch up the @#$*! curb rash. Additionally, I plan on getting some EB touch-up paint to try to eliminate the $^&*#@! rock chips on my hood and front bumper. Happy &^$#@! NewYear!!

First few days of Jan:
Install:
- Forge UNOS MBC (stiff spring)
- Forge/PowerFlex Motor Mount

First two weeks of January:
Baseline Dyno with current tuning and parts, then...
Install:
- Buschur ported/coated stock exhaust manifold, stock 10.5 turbine
- Depending on the timing, may install new Buschur coated tubular O2 housing - if not, then Buschur ported/coated stock o2 housing
- Forge Wastegate Actuator (switch UNOS to soft spring)
- Forge Brake Duct Cooling Kit (one of the first kits to arrive in the country)
- Custom road tune by Dynoflash for all of the above
Re-dyno after tune

Some time in January yet to be determined:
Receive and install special go-fast parts from Al@Dynoflash

Spring:
- 255 width R-comps for the Rota Torques (not sure on brand yet)

Dingleberries, you can get a custom road tuned Dynoflash on the 28th when Al comes down to Atlanta and tunes at TopSpeed.

Installed my relocation kit today.
Install the Hallman in-cockpit MBC and drop-in next week.
Install the TBE this winter.

Enjoy all year long after that!

I was planning on getting all the parts installed, and then get tuned at one setting. I don't think I'll have enough funds by the time Al gets here, but thanks for the heads up though.

But the Ecutek tune will cost far more than the Dynoflash. What do you mean you won't have enough funds? You would have $650 in your pocket and would only need half that for Al's tune. It is good to get tuned right when the parts are installed, but is it worth paying an extra $350 to not wait until Jan 28th? I don't know when you're getting the parts installed, so I don't know how long of a wait it would be.

Copycat! That is my exact plan for next year, except I will probably stay with 17s since my Advans proably have 2 years (summers) left
