Ah, so it's not an air intake for combustion purposes, but an air intake to cool the intercooler.

Cool, I learned something.

Thanks for the picture of the engine compartment. Looks tight in there!

One year later, and the car been completely reliable, even after the 2500 mile road trip. Now has ~9500 miles on it.

Turned over 10,000 miles today pulling into the Tesla factory.



Also finally washed and waxed it on the 10th

I'll wash that pretty car for 5yrs if you sneak me one of the tesla SUVs out the back door.

3 years ago today now, drove the car to California and back, now up to 24,000 miles, and zero issues.

Added the optional fog lights at Thanksgiving.

24,000 miles in three years? My Lord, what do you do, walk to work?

Just pulling your chain. My daughter has a Subbie Outback 3.6R Premium. Has been trouble free up until the transmission went out, twice.

Isn't it strange that after a bombing, everyone blames the bomber, his upbringing, his environment, his culture, his mental state but … after a shooting, the problem is the gun....

You can't do much about the length of your life, so focus on the width and depth. When Life throws you a curve, lean into it and roll that throttle!!

If, you wish to piss off a Conservative, lie to him.
If, you wish to piss off a Liberal, tell them the truth.

Four years, little over 28,000 miles, and still no issues!

I haven't seen a Subaru SVX or an XT in a very long time.

Not for sure if they are collectible or junk piles, but I always thought they were cool back in the day.

Wow 4 years 28k, you don't drive that much! It should last a long time at that rate. It was, and still is, a nice looking car.
