what did you do to your Sonic today?

[SonicBoy24]

Drove around today looking for someone to race lol no takers

Don't you hate that?
Whenever I'm in the mood to pick up the pace no one else is...

Although I did spank a base model Lancer the other day. Nothin' special, but his was stick compared to my autotragic...

I'm going to give my Sonic HB a good washing/detailing tomorrow since temps will be in the low 60's. No rain in forecast, so should stay clean for a while.

Anyone else use 303 Protectant for their plastic interior/exterior pieces? That stuff works great, leaves no shiny/greasy residue.

I updated my ECO/Budget tune to a Stock/Full tune. Way better! Boost levels went from ECO 8-10 to Stock 15-17 and Power mode from 17-18 to 23-25! And no surging like I initially experienced with the Budget tune. Love it! I highly recommend the Stock/Full tune. This car is so much fun to drive. My wife just shakes her head and doesn't understand when I say I'm just going for a drive.

I'm gonna have to come out there soon.

Today I fixed the dangling exhaust and somehow created a rattle upon cold start at a certain RPM. I didn't notice it while driving though. The car felt a bit better tonight, like it did when I first tuned it. Hopefully I get the results back from my data log soon.

 

[Eric Smit]

Nice job! Looks great. I think I'm gonna have to do springs soon. How did the install go? Are your rear drums painted silver??

 

[firstorbit84]

I think his drums might've just looked silver because of the sun.

Nice job Steve! I totally missed your post. Looks great. You should throw on some tire shine too

 

[Javiero]

Nice work slitzell! Looks good.

 

[slitzell]
