Got some 1/2 inch double sided 3M tape and fixed my stock air intake. No more coming a part at the filter box.

How does it sound a WOT? Thanks for your input I'm getting ready to pull the trigger.

I cleaned up broken glass and filled out a police report.
Sunday while I was serving at my church my car was broken into in the church parking garage, via driver side window. They took a number of personal items, but left the 3 Defi gauges that I still have not hooked up yet and my stereo I had just installed a couple of weeks before.
My poor car is still recovering at in my parents garage while I wait for the replacement window to show up next week.
The thing I am most upset about loosing is my #3 Russell Wilson jersey I have had since the end of last season.

I hate stupid people....

Took it to the track and was very disappointed in my times, but trap speed was good at 117mph

I "hopefully" took care of my oil leak, and found out that my LICP had come off the turbo.

I would know if I took care of it, however I said hopefully as if it wasn't where I thought it was, next was front main seal. However tensioner bolts ended up fixing it thus far.

I meant: How would you not know your intercooler pipe was disconnected at the turbo?

touche, yea not too sure on that, I drove the car to and from work no issues, drove fine. But when I had the car in the air I was looking at the bottom of the pan and just happened to bump the pipe and it moved way to much for what it should have, sure as **** it was sitting about 2" below the outlet of the turbo coupler must not have sealed that well when I put it on. Last time it came off it let me and the passenger know by sounding like the engine popped and couldnt even nurse it home.
