Most-Wanted's IX Build Part "DEUX"
That's nice the pipes finally arrived and I agree on the stealth look too. I can't wait till your car is tuned. I'm very curious about the new hta green turbos and to see what they can do. That was me on xbox live last night (Ir1shAssassin04) by the way lol. I became an Amsoil dealer when I got my Evo to get the Dominator oil for my car and to hopefully make a few bucks. That stuff works amazing! Have you used it before?
Well the ETS pipes arrived as promised. My aluminum jack blew a seal though so I had to go buy a new jack. Long story actually. Anyways as soon as Austin goes to sleep I will resume the install. The pipes are powdercoated flat black and are gorgeous.
AMSOIL also overnighted me a bunch of oils. Going with the dominator oil for the Green and all the other good stuff. Gonna swap the fluids over in Orlando but just finishing this stuff up. Im impressed with the pipes though. I will snap pics as soon as I can... I like the stealthy black look better than the polished look

Yeah that was fun...NOT! tryin to get my tactical mask pro I am new to AMSOIL but have heard nothing but great things. I used to run Brad Penn but I rather support a local vendor.
Thanks on the opinions. It looks great. Pipes are in. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to go drive it. Its too late and it will really **** the neighbors off
I am hoping some of my issues have vanished Guages tomorrow...
And munchkin enjoying some warm weather
And munchkin quickly getting in trouble
And no he jumped into Mom's new 2011 IS-F sport
LOL...
Cod is beyond frustrating sometimes....I was gonna ask because it happens to me a lot but people harass me the time and say I don't drive an Evo because of my clan tag, does it happen to you? I've heard a lot of good things about the Brad Penn stuff too, but I've always been told to use Amsoil. A ton of people I know with all kinds of cars use Amsoil. I had black intercooler pipes too, but I changed them for the shorter route intercooler piping so they're polished again. I'm saving money for a build so its what I got for now. I love the 20g turbos too. Perfect power for a daily driver without beomg too crazy or unreliable. Oh and kudos for getting the IS-F dirty and not the Evo! Lol How is that car do you like it?

I know AMSOIL is awesome oil but I was kind of locked in on Brad Penn. Not anymore so I made the switch. It is far superior to oil like Mobil 1 etc. Im happy about the switch. As for the IS-F. Best car I have ever owned. I bought it on a whim because our 2010 Audi Q5 kept having issues. I was like dayum we need something more reliable and thought I never hear anyone with a IS250 complaining. So I grabbed one with the F sport package. The car is super impressive. Its not super fast but it is loaded with nav, hid, keyless go, etc. The ride is amazing and not one glitch yer Now I am bummed because I wish I just bought the ISF. But I didnt want to sink a lot of money into it and be disappointed. I have been thinking about asking the dealer to get the wife an ISF. sean-yeah he is alot of fun. alot of work but the most rewarding kind.
cod is way addicting for some reason lol Oil is oil at a certain point so whatever works I say. That's awesome about the IS-F, I've wondered. I hate suvs now...My gf and I had the same problem with a keep grand Cherokee laredo and she eventually got an Audi S4 instead. No problems yet either and she loves the luxury and horsepower. Lol
i should be using an XBOX
Well I fixed her Drivability is 99% perfect. Only issue is a slight throttle hang between shifts. But the lesson here is that I was right and there WAS a problem and VTA does not work on stock ecu. Its weird because the car ran fine on a stock map with the Tial, but once tuned drivability went to $heet. The stock 1G holds 26 psi no problem. A fourth gear pulled showed around 27-28 psi. AFR'S are now a little richer with the changes and are 11.1 now from the tuned 11.5. Car is a bullet and drives like stock. I am so dayum happy I may have a 
The ETS pipes fit and look awesome too. The 1G looks a bit out of place but the car runs so perfect I'm not so anxious to make any changes. I am signed up for a March track day so I may leave it alone for now. I just need to install the new MR guages and the car will be a very nice streetable track day car
