Hows the downpipe treating you man. No issues? Some people cry that they kill turbos.

The turbos are still fine. They sound a little different when they spool though. Before it was like a whoosh sound, but after the DP install it was a little more whiney. I dunno if thats anything to worry about, or if it's just how the DP changed the sound.

And ya I had a leak in a PS line so I replaced it and it was all good, and I just had to get the AC refilled. (I used the USDM compressor btw)

Not really. I've been busy with school, and I don't have a garage or hardly any tools at my house here, but I'll be putting on the TT swaybars this summer, as well as maybe getting my cluster needles fixed.

I've also got to figure out what's wrong with my power steering. I add fluid, but the reservoirs dry in a couple days. I thought I had a leak but I don't see any fluid under my car......weird.
