Wasn't exactly today but I did finally get around to changing the brake pads to another set of Hawk HPS front pads as the others where already lower than 50% ware and you could feel it. Car brakes much better now after the change. Love these pads.

Nice!
How many miles do you have since you changed the stock fluid? I have mine and need to get a day to do it. I’m about at 35k
I'm at 40k and should have done it ages ago. With a ratchet set, 8mm hex bolt, and some vinyl tubing cut to length for a funnel to refill the fluid it's an easy 'mod.'

I bought rhino ramps a couple weeks ago and so I can finally start doing some of my own maintenance, at least simple stuff like this.

Installed a K&N Drop-in filter and ordered a fog light delete. I also ordered an ST200 from a company in the UK with free shipping to Germany. Price is a steal compared to US pricing.

Did my pads and rotors, went with OEM for the price and I think they are pretty good since I just daily the car. Also added a Turbosmart dual port BOV. Might have to get back under there and readjust it. Sounds like a tractor trailer turbo now lol.

Same here, I’d been searching on car-part for a while and a set finally came up for a good deal

I removed my old flowmaster cat back (It'll be posted for sale this weekend ;)) and installed the Thermal. Those clamps are a pain when you only have the car up on jack stands, but I got it on.
I was only able to take it on a short drive but its sounding like this is was In was after. Very mellow, almost quiet. I'll have to see how the cold start is in the AM but I'm thinking it will be perfect.

Thank you ron@whoosh and TyphoonFiST for answering all my questions

Only issue was how close the tips are to the bumper. I had to pull the tips out fairly far to get any clearance and even then I only have about 1/8", maybe a little more. Any suggestions getting more room? I'm using urethane hangers and I adjusted it but couldn't find any more clearance.

^^^I so wish that someone made a version of that with the 'WRC style' vents at the upper corners. [:(]

That one weighs about 12 pounds, correct?

Wax and stickers make cars go fast.

Just picked up a Mountune Induction hose. They have 20% off right now with code Summer20. I had to pay for shipping since I have to use USPS. Also ordered Whoosh crossover pipe. My intake is coming together. Piecemeal but it is coming along.
