One of the things I had in mind when buying this car was camping. Like all Golf hatchbacks, they’re perfect for it.

Straight gangsta full 3″ exhaust.

My boy Jay and I did a full 3″ stainless steel exhaust on his 08 Legacy 2.5GT. It all first started with the downpipe straight through the cat to the stock exhaust, then we removed the resonator and replaced that section with a straight pipe still using the stock diameter 2.25″ exhaust piping. That sounded pretty ill but more power is always needed – so we replaced the stock piping/mufflers with a full 3″ SS exhaust to make it a true full 3″ turbo back exhaust. The entire system is off the hook. Straight pipes all the way back ending in Magnaflow’s 3″ SS straight though design mufflers – this bitch breaths like a mofo and sounds like a running bull. After all was said and done we had our boy Kreonic (Charlie, one of the best tuners in the industry) do and custom tune on the Cobb Access Port for the finishing touches. Hows it run you ask? Lets run!

Duesey’s puppy ears are gone.

Like a true Cane Corso Italian Mastiff, Duesey went in for his ear cropping at about 8 months old. We definitely miss the puppy ears but he looks really sharp with the new do. I’m sure it was a bit painful at first, but he’s a strong dog and did just fine with the whole procedure. The doctor did a excellent job with everything – they were both standing by the third day and he seemed to feel back to normal at the same time. Two weeks later the stitches came out and now we are just waiting for the hair to fully grow back on the ears. I’ll post more pics in a couple weeks when that happens. For now, these are about one week with the stitches in.

Shift-bang, see ya!

K20 swap mated to a Dogbox trans working like a Swiss watch.

G35 coolant reservoir tank.

This is a one off piece for Claude’s G35. It first started out as 4 raw pieces of 6061. The bottom cap, mid tube, top cap and the neck. At the end, it’s a one piece Benchmade jewel. Check back for pics of it installed.

The BBM build begins

So here she is, the GTI that finally shit the bed. She served me well but, now it’s time for me to return the favor. For this season my plans are to do a complete rebuild on the entire front-end, including shaving the bay up a bit and removing a lot of unnecessary stuff. Things that this Sunday driver won’t need like heater, ac stuff, power steering etc.. On to the pics and check back for more updates as the weeks go by. She’ll be ready for H2O for sure!!

My new Golf..

So my 89 BBM finally shit the bed. It was just a matter of time. 1 thing starts and all problems follow. Well, my plan is to take the next however many years and make her purtty again. Do the whole project thing and have some fun!

My new daily is uber sweet. The best part is the working heater.. and horn.. and ac.. and and and and….

The 100yr storm.

I don’t think I have ever seen it snow like this before in my life. Day after day, the inches turned into feet on top of feet. I love the snow and all but the shoveling part… and I wanted a longer driveway..
