I have a 2012, so maybe? Just spent 30 minutes looking in backups for it and didn't spot it. So TBD on if I still even have a copy.

Lemme know if you find it. IIRC, the 2013 had its own version of ATR. But I can't remember 100%

I know for gen 1, 07-08 had its own version and 08.5-09 had its own. And for the pu 2010 had its own version and 2011-12 (maybe 13 too) were lumped together
 
Changed the plugs today at roughly 199,500 miles. These plugs have roughly 19k on em. Brisk one step colder. They look just about as I'd expect as the car runs low 11 afr in boost on the current 93 octane map.

Fresh set of the same plugs went in

You found advantages in using Brisk Silver plugs?
19k and still sparking fine?
Nice color on ground strap.

Looking at the Accestuner Pro HL version, 2011-2013 share the same ECU calibration and therefore ATR must have been same as well. If you would like to have your tune refreshed, let me know. I can make you a new tune with the tables you wish to have.

Was starting to get a little blow out. Could have re gapped the plugs, but that always sketches me out. Replaced em just because. Now just need to get a new AP and retune this thing.
 
Realized I never posted these here. Was driving to Columbus, IN for work one day and passed an Enkei facility. Pulled up and got a few shot with my Enkei wheels. Lol.

Anyways, 100 miles shy of 200k now.

Only issue so far has been the slave blowing. Which I replaced the slave and line. And the pivot shaft seal needs replaced. Will tackle that soon

That's about all she's gonna do on pump gas. The 93 octane in KY isn't great unless I go to Costco which is an hour round trip. So It's pretty conservative. 9* of timing up top.

May experiment with an e30 mix down the road. But I need to service these injectors first before I go down that route and get them cleaned and replace all the filters and seals
 
Must be shitty fuel or crank angle sensor slightly out of alignment then; I thought 14 deg (at 6k) on a bigger turbo was about average.
 
Shitty fuel for sure. I had to pull timing out of my 93 map on the 6 when I moved from northeast Ohio to KY. A gallon and a half of corn takes care of it, but it's not convenient to do all the time.
 
Oh yeah the central states have really bad gas lol
I've traveled to Kansas a few times and it's a trip watching the octane at the pump lower the further inland you go.
 
Hey y'all. Not much to update with the car other than it's sitting right around 217k miles now. Probably gonna need a new clutch sooner than later as the 6 puck is nearing 50k miles of use.

I'm intending on replacing the badly faded hood scoop and spoiler at some point and I do need to get a new wheel as a cracked one of the enkeis hitting a pothole a few months back.

Otherwise, all my spare time and money the past year has been spent planning a 2 week trip to India with Michelle and my Parents for my youngest cousins wedding. On a flight from Delhi to Heathrow right now...put together a little video of all the pics from our trip!

Dude! A. Sorry about the MS6, I didn't know it went that way. Good deal on the MS3. Lots coming up with passing 200k. Now nearing 220k.

Glad you're still around in the community. Saw the pictures on fake space, looks like you two had a blast!

I get the car being low priority. Seems as we've all aged these cars become lower on the priority list of money spending.

Good luck with this one man.

Anymore dreams of another big build?
