Check engine came back on today for a new code. PO401. I believe that's the EGR code, and a vacuum line might be loose. Anyone want to confirm?

i had that code but it was the EGR solenoid under the intake mani. it could be a cracked line or popped of hose, but my code was for the solenoid itself because it has a really small crack on it and that my friend will do it for ya.....
Less than 5k for sure... I'm sure I'll join you at Pocono at least once this year, plus all the autox I can fit in. I'm sticking with 17's and going to 255's.
I may end up just going with the StarSpecs as the NT-01's don't have enough depth to really handle any water. They look like they would have awesome grip in the dry though...

nt01's work well for what you want to do, but daily driving would heat cycle them to a quick death. even with our awd I wouldn't want to run them in the wet. just imagine what it would be like getting caught on 95 coming home from an event in a down pour!
what I would do in your shoes is keep all season tires on those winter wheels for daily duty and get some a6's on the other wheels. that will net you the best performance @ the autox and you can still use the all season tires for pocono. its a PITA, but if you want to get the quickest times you need the best tire and to run that tire you're going to need to change rims before each event.

Hows the wife and my baby?

The nt01s are fine in water. I drove them through snow and ice and didn't die. I got almost 6k beating the living snot out of them running -3.1 front camber and -1.7 rear on an 08 STI. I'm not your typical driver though so you might not be fine with them. I don't mind sliding around a lot.
No I just road race. And yes 6/32 sounds right 2/32 less than ra-1s none of that unshaved gitters.
