    False alarm. When I drove this morning I was at 14.2-14.3 most of the time. I had just driven yesterday before making the switch so I guess the battery didn't have a much draw.

    Its a complete failed. I tried every youtube and online bs false advertisements ads, claims and methods. Flowmaster = drone, lost of low end tq......Borla = sound like a dull sounding flowmaster, drone even more, the J pipe resonators = can only do so much with reducing drone. Having longer or more resonator dont mean less drone. Now the damn drone vibration i can feel it inside my house with a cold start in morning...lol

    My hood bulge would not stay in place anymore. Anything over 55 and it popped out. I was waiting for it to completely tear off and go flying. This is an Amazon special. Decided to replace the grill and bulge. For the $, I have zero complaints. May or may not color match down the road.

    From this...

    Installed the Brite Box Fogster. Getting to the headlight connector is a downright bitch, but otherwise not a bad install.

    ESP is still running their 25% overstock on the plastic version on their site. Cheapest I've seen it. They have really nice aluminum versions too.

    My mom moved back down from WA state and wants another Subaru down here and I told her exactly what you stated lol. Parts and service is pretty much dealership only and therefore $$$.

    TetonWorkshop Shift knob. The side plates were tan, but I decided to remove them and paint'em in quicksand to color match the truck.
    Teton Shift Knob.jpg
    I was surprised the logo is laser itched in contrast to quicksand.
    Interior match.jpg

    My next project: Custom wrap silver panel on door to matte carbon fiber. AJT design, door handle cover in quicksand. I try to wrap it myself, but it's not a clean look. There is small creases at the corner, and parts showing the silver panel. I might as well have it done by a professional. I will post pictures when all doors are done.
    But here is the idea: Stealth look finish.

    I've got the Borla touring system. It's pretty quiet, but I don't have any drone going down the highway. It's the right sound level for me. I'm very pleased with the Borla, it's my second one.

    I’ve got the Borla pro xs muffler, no rear cats, an X-pipe, and one of dirty deeds resonators and I’ve got zero drone to the point I can’t even hear the muffler anymore it’s so quiet.

    Swapped the chrome bumper ends for a color matched one I picked up off Craigslist. While I had it apart, I decided to drop in some yellow fog lights.
