Finally blanked out my EGR! Took it for a quick test drive, slight difference in power it seems and I can hear what I think is the turbo? There's a bit more "whine" but also an airy "whooshing" sound. Good description right? Also, the bolts on the intake side were COVERED in oil, I'll keep an eye on everything, but is that normal?

Adjusted the timing slightly - thanks Jason
Did the U-joints on the front drive shaft (thanks again lol)
filled the diff with fluid.
Put a new boot on the clutch housing (thanks Steven)

Put the winter tires/rims on the van and the subaru.
I'm ready winter... Bring it on!

I am on a rust crusade - my side step didn't make the cut. And now it's gone

Straight piped my van, it's not overly loud, but man does it whistle! Bonus is that it only cost $98 to have done and I have some time to figure out how to make my exhaust stack / snorkel idea work!

Thanks for the offer, I actually have a friend who's planning to do it, I just need to save up for all SS materials and work put the design.

After seeing photos of jesse's pop top, I felt ashamed of the state the rear axle on Blueberry.

Spent some evenings tidying it up. Hopefully I will get permission to do the front soon.

I threw on some new tires. 235/75/15 Goodyear Duratracs. They sure do look nice.
I'm not lifting my van any time soon, so i kept with the smaller vs going up to 31's

Wired in the Boost and EGT gauges....both are the Aubur 1813 green. Removed the Altimeter in favor of the boost location....a little more ABS sheet put to use!

Okay Brad.... Totally excellent & crucial but how does it work and can you talk with it? "Computer, damage report."
Also, does it have a tractor beam?

Yesterday I changed to 5w40 synthetic for winter, and installed my winter tires. I haven't had the best of luck with them so far, so here's hoping they can serve me all winter this year!!

I also removed my bike rack from the rear (won't be needing it for a while), and I plan to canvas the front again to protect the rad from too much cold air (helps with interior heating). Bring on winter!!

Finished removing the hideous and UV damaged Jasper graphics. Painted and installed the black wheel arches.
