I've seen a handful of stingers in Calgary, granted near the downtown area and not really anywhere else.. there is a thunder grey stinger I always see in the parkade next to the palliser hotel, wondering if its anyone on here :laugh:
 
Oh god that spoiler is hideous.

Has anyone installed the SSR downpipes for your AWD? I keep reading that it is not a perfect fit... what is the work around? Have not come across any answers to this yet...

I installed SSR midpipes (sometimes referred to as downpipes, but downstream from the primary cats & sensors) on my car about a month ago. The drivers side pipe was very tight to a bolt in the transfer case. After a week or so, it started to rattle, though oddly enough, only on cold startups. I took a hammer and pounded a small concave divot into the pipe and no problems since then. I did have use of a lift for both the initial install and the removal, modification & reinstall. It would have been a much more difficult job without that. Using the hoist, it was about 45 minutes, all in, for the installation.
 
I rarely see stingers in Calgary sadly. Saw a white one on stoney on Tuesday night headed east, I was trying to log map 3 so he probably thought I was being a douche haha

4th gear pulls are definitely extra-legal. I use third so I can keep my driver's license. What gas are you testing map 3 on, and using an octane booster?

Had to put some P&S Bead Maker on to help with this lovely weather.

I'm running e30 on map 3 and 5. Both passed log inspections with Terry.

16L (4 gallons) of e85 and the rest of good 91/94 octane.

Welcome! You'll find a lot of great information on here.

Good choice on the Injen intake, they are a well engineered system that installs easily, looks great and has a very nice sound to it under moderate to hard acceleration. Should be a nice combination with the JB4! :thumbup:
 
I'm curious how CAI's affect the engine in -30°C weather. Not that we ever see that up here.....:rofl:

Most are not true CAI's for this car, I went the Injen route (no heat shield in the engine bay) I really like it, no issues in the winter, but I only bought it for the sound.
