She sounds good man. Im at about the same spot as you are moding the car, but Ive got rotors to do next believe I feel a slight warp in one of them so putting off my piping for now. But I did order the greddy front lip for mine....if it will ever ship, been almost a month.

Thanks! Rotors is something I might also need to do too. I replaced the brake pads, but I do get occasional squealing while braking at low speeds. If the Greddy lip is coming from Japan, it might take close to 2-3 months from what I've heard.

I ordered it from MAP in the hopes it wouldnt take that long but it looks like it is. MAP has a good deal on custom rotors I saw can get them slotted and/or drilled how I want, with pads, SS brake lines, and fluid for about 500 something. Probably a better rotor choice than the local store.

I figured the cost of the OEM cat was about 700$, but I could get a full TBE exhaust for about the same price from Buschur. I'm really happy with how it came out and the sound. I was also trying to get my AFR gauge installed at the same time, but due to time constraints, I wasn't able to get the AFR gauge installed into the dash. I'm slowly getting this car in order. Now all I have left is to change out the intercooler and piping, throttle body to fix the boost leak, change out the clutch/TOB, find out what is causing a thumping noise when I turn right + accelerate (I believe its the axles, but I've heard so many conflicting things) and to get it tuned. I'm hoping i'll be able to get most of that fixed during this year.

New Exhaust
I actually have an extra throttle body. You can have it for cheap. Let me know if you need it.

I plan on going to a bigger throttle body, not sure if you have stock or not but I might hit you up on that.

Yeah, it's really surprising because the most evos i've seen down here at the same time was that last cars and coffee when there was 5.

Sounds good. I'm reaching out to a few groups I'm in to see if other people are going. As of right now got a few maybes, but nothing definite

Awesome, looks like some of the guys in the groups I'm in say they're planning on coming out, so I'll be there.

@dbotkin5 You coming out again?

Well, just got the notification on facebook that states that cars and coffee has been cancelled per Town of Morrisville denial of permit application. Way to go Morrisville... I'll update this as I see more information.

**EDIT** Looks like Cars and Coffee Clayton is going on tomorrow. 11407 US 70 Business HWY W, Clayton NC 27520. There is also Detail Garage in Cary on Sunday, but I'm working Sunday, so I won't be able to make that.
