What I did today..
I installed the DDM Works intake kit w/shield. I missed hearing the spool and blowoff I had on my old STi. Need to keep saving money so I can keep working on my build!!

I've had the car for a year now and have 18,000 miles on it, so it's time for unnecessary-at-this--time preventative maintenance.
The cabin air filter had to go. Probably not a bad decision and I'm just a few thousand miles early on that anyway.
I forgot they had a 45k interval on engine air filters in the normal schedule, but it got a new one anyway. I usually just replace them yearly regardless. Judging by how clean mine was, I wasted $28. Just removing it and shaking all the crap out of it would have been sufficient.
The OEM filters seem to be of very good quality, though expensive. But for whatever reason, they do not stock the air filter at my dealer - seems odd to have to order a normal maintenance item and wait for it. The box says GM Korea Company and Made in Romania, perhaps that's why. I'll just order it online at my convenience next time since I'll have to wait to get it anyway.

Washed it and installed a Graco car seat base since I got to bring my son home from NICU today!!!!! First day home, 5 days old
Congratulations! We brought our daughter home 4 months ago. It was one of the greatest days of my life, but every day since then has been better than the last! Enjoy fatherhood.

Thanks! I'm totally excited to be a dad. The wife and I were pretty devastated when he had to be rushed to Devos Children's Hospital but they worked their magic and he's a healthy boy now
He used to go NUTS in the wife's tummy when I would hit full boost so I'm sure I'll get some laughs outa him soon enough from the back seat
