Haha it's okay, I've just listed everything I can think of, I know I'm missing tons of stuff in my original list on the first page. I'll get around to catching it up eventually.

First off. I would like to welcome aboard Johnson Tuning!
He will be sponsoring the car this year and be working a few different tunes!
We currently have the car 80% done and will be finishing her off on the dyno this week.
If you need anyone to tune your vehicle do not hesitate to have Corbin take care of you!
Johnsontuning.com

Onto the build. Got the injectors in. Everything wired up. Making roughly 470whp already with tons left to get shooting for 530/530 at a safe 25 psi. We may go 32psi just for numbers and bragging rights.
I have installed quik latches on the trunk to help secure it for the added downforce.
Installed wedge seat bases with the sparco pro2000's. Harnesses all wrapped up besides the 5th point currently. But ill get it in next week.
After 2 months I finally got my QRJ Fittings. And got it mounted on the upper IC pipe.
aMAZEing Power Coating hooked me up as usual with the powder costing of the upper IC pipe and harness bar as I cut off the quick release tabs to wrap them more safely and permanent.
Tcase ATF fluid was bleed.
Already a few hundred miles on the car and followed TRE's break in procedure. The trans shifts beautifully! He may not advertise for Subaru but he can work magic on any manual transmission!
Onto the pictures???

Thank you Kiggly this car is such a blast to drive!

Tomorrow she hits the rollers! i'm hoping for very promising results 530/530 on 25psi
Maybe 560+ if the boost turns up.

So far the car seems like a monster with a 80% street tune. No issues have arisen. New catch can is supposed to be done today also.

Love the build that car looks amazing. Quick question, Im about to pick up 2 of the quick latches here: http://www.quik-latch.com/quik-latch-mini-latch.html

I was just wondering the rough dimensions of what I would need for the bracket? I dont need the splitter support so I was planning on picking up some 1/8" aluminum flat stock but wasn't sure how long or wide I need or if I should go thicker for that matter...any additional info you have would be great

Quick bumper disconnects with some wind splitter support.

1.5" should be fine. 1.25" could work too. But 1.5" is best.

Thanks, just trying to get in the ballpark here really. Hopefully Home Depot will have something small kicking around. And is that 1/8" or thicker?

How do you like the QRJ bov? I am currently running the Tial QR recirculated and it kind of bucks and stutters during partial throttle adjustments. I heard the QRJ was better in this regard due to a different design (I am also trying to get into autox)


I am thinking about going speed density at the same time with the bov VTA. How loud is it? Right now with my aftermarket UICP, the QR is pretty noticeable. I wouldn't mind a little more noise, as long as it doesn't get too annoying.
