Woahs

As of yesterday the 130k miles hit me for the first time.....

Turbo seal is going out, its just a sign a need a bigger turbo.... A little upsetting that it happened now, because I am without a vehicle, but explains that the smoke I was seeing the past few weeks was oil, not my head gasket starting to go.

I'm on the fence as to which turbo to go with options include:

evo 16g
Big 16g
td05 18g 7cm
td06 18g 8cm

Out of them all im leaning towards the td06 18g 8cm the most, I like the power it makes and if i PnP it ill have the same spool as the td05. But as a 8cm is hard to come by (used... remember college student budget) i might go with the td05 and PnP for amazing spool.

I am in the market for the following:
walboro 255 fuel pump
Electronic Boost solenoid (preferable Grimmspeed)
Turbo (^^^those)
Large TMIC
Larger Injectors.

If you have any of these contact me at charris90@gmail.com

otherwise im looking on the forums.

First Post

So starting from the beginning, my first vehicle was a 2001 BMW 330CI that my father graciously gave me. It was not my first choice in a vehicle; it was a convertible and automatic.
(not my old one but one that i found on Google same model, color, ect.)


I soon traded this car for a 2005 Subaru WRX. This is where i fell in love. With only 37k miles it was practically new, and not to mention quick.
When i eventually got rid of the wrx its mods included:
HKS Intake
Turbo Back Exhaust
Buddy club P2 rims, Powder coated Black
Carbon Fiber Trunk
Tinted Headlights, Taillights
Custom Halo Eye Headlights
Car computer (internet, Gps, video playback, ect.)



After getting over my crave for a head turning car, which the WRX was, I settled on something more subtle: a Forester XT. Sitting in the lot, it looked as though it had only 20k maybe 30k miles. I soon found out that it had about 130k miles... Unbelievable a car that had so many miles could look as good as it did... Turns out that it did not only look good, but it performed and ran even better... I was hooked instantly. I traded the WRX and recieved the 2004 Forester xt AND $5k to boot, the best deal I have made to this date.
