    StreetSpeed’s DD 500+ MS6 Build

    I just switched from IWG to EWG and dumped it down below. It is crazy loud and does sound a bit like a machine gun with the flutter. I thought something was seriously wrong the first time I went WOT. My car is not a daily and I don't even have an aftermarket exhaust but I have a boost actuated...

    '06 MS6 bought not built...kinda

    Boost gauge was installed a few weeks ago and I tore into the rear seat to try and figure out why the fuel gauge is reading incorrectly. It seems the sending unit is okay but there are 2 of them on the 6 so I need to pull the other one from the tank and bench test it in line with the driver...

    StreetSpeed’s DD 500+ MS6 Build

    I was more curious about HP. I read somewhere that they didn't provide specific numbers so I was just curious. That is what is in the car I bought. I'm sure it can hold 500. Hopefully.

    MS6 fuel gauge not reading correctly

    I bought a new to me MS6 and I recently ran out of gas with just over a quarter of a tank. I filled up and the gauge was almost 1/4 tank over the full mark. I pulled the fuel pump unit today and tested the float by pulling the fuel pump relay and then connecting the harness to the top and...

    Definitely think 4th gear is gone and you mentioned your crank bolt was loose so I think you may have skipped timing possibly as well. I think your top and bottom end should be okay.

    I got the car aligned last week and the suspension has settled in nicely. I also added about 4 turns of preload to my wastegate actuator arm so hopefully we can keep making some power on this 93 tune. Oh and I found out my gas gauge is off by about 1/4 of a tank. I ran out with 1/4 tank and...

    Your loose crank bolt has nothing to do with your free revving grenaded trans. Your flywheel is screwed as well as at least 4th gear. Seems you have multiple issues.

    I snapped a couple daytime pictures. I need to get an alignment in the next few days but I'm happy with how it is settling in.

    '06 MS6 bought not built...kinda

    Well I typed up a really nice post and as soon as I went to post it, it got erased so...here we go again. I got these brand new traklites and 0 mile p zeros from a Subie owner who sold her car before she installed them. They are 18x8.5 +42 wrapped in 245/40. I picked up the whole set for 800...

    MS6 Bilstein B6 question

    Well I have some 17s for sale now. Got this whole setup with 0 miles for less than the rims or tires would have cost alone.

    MS6 Bilstein B6 question

    So I posted a few weeks ago about my HUGE fender gap. PO says he installed the lower perch on the Bilstein B6s upside down. I pulled it out tonight and installed the H&R lowering springs and looked at the perch. The perch seems the same on both sides. Either way we are talking 1/2"...

    So I've been at a stand-still because I had a severe boost/vacuum leak somewhere. I figured out the leak was coming from a port on the side of the ST manifold and reached out to Damond Motorsports and they sent me a new cap that is better than the original. I was able to send a few more logs...

    The PO installed the Bilsteins with the perch upside down so it is even worse than stock. I figured if I have to pull them anyway I might as well ditch the stock springs.

    Today my H&R springs should be here so I went and picked up a spring compressor from Auto Zone. I may not get to them today because the weather is crap and my shop is full but I'll be ready. I also got a CS boost gauge from Santa and started that install. I also went and took 2 logs from my...
