Okay, but I just want it to be known that I am not in any way claiming to be making 600+ WHP. I'll be happy to make close to 500 on E85.
Thanks!
Thanks Aaron! You should make 'em out of carbon fiber vinyl!
I was hoping to get some videos of it on the dyno, but we didn't end up dynoing it while I was there. Hopefully I can get one when we do the E85 map. It sounds terrible though. Redoing the exhaust is my next priority.

Gettin' my E85 tune today, but I wont be there to get it on video 'cause I'm stuck at work. Bummer.
When I pick my car up tomorrow, it will have a new AEM wideband and AFR gauge, an AEM MAP sensor that will eliminate my "stock-MAP-sensor-installed-upside-down-collecting-oil" problem, I'll have a low boost pump gas map and an E85 high boost map. I can then eliminate a bunch of unnecessary sensors, wiring and clutter from the engine compartment and all will be right in the world.
And here's what's being fixed:

Picked up my car tonight. It now has:
-AEM standalone
-AEM wideband and AFR gauge
-AEM MAP sensor
-Aeromotive 340 fuel pump
It made 508 WHP on 23 lbs. of boost on E85. I finally got to drive it, and it pulls HARD all the way to 7500 RPM. I am in love.
Not sure how to embed videos here, so hopefully this works.

Thanks Gus!
The 2011 was a nice car, don't get me wrong. It just felt kind of numb and detached compared to my WRX. It was smooth and quiet, had plenty of power, the interior was beautiful, it handled great, stopped great, it just didn't click for me. I missed my old car.

Thanks!
Spent yesterday evening washing it, cleaning the engine compartment, removing the ghetto grounding kit, installing fancy pants Bosch wipers, installing hood dampers, and replacing the catch can lines. The engine compartment looks 1000 times better without miles and miles of unnecessary hoses and wires...I need to take a pic.
I'm planning on painting the intercooler piping wrinkle black and getting rid of all the blue hoses.
