Yeah, I fell behind on my updates, but I have a good excuse: things didn’t go quite to plan, there was an autocross, and I nearly pulled an all-nighter. (more…)

Didn’t make a ton of progress today, but I did inch forward. I procured some new bolts for the downpipe-turbo connection and took the old exhaust to storage along with the stock anti-roll bar in order to free up some space in the garage.
