Yes. Tested it again yesterday at Johnson's Creek in the mud and snow. Much fun.

Intake spacers gave a slight but noticeable bump. I found some 1/2" phenolic material in my shop so I am going to make another set and a TB spacer.

Installing 8mm spacers between head and intake today and will test those out at the upcoming run to see if they make a difference in the low end. If I have time between now and then I'll do a TB spacer too although I have my doubts on that one.

Looking for the new EL single port and test pipe. Got a price so I put it into the budget?

Not bringing the kids just my neighbor. I do have a possible co-driver for you if you decide to leave the fam at home. Small list: Whatever food and beverages you need plus the usual recovery tools / spare parts.

Sweet... hope you guys can make it. Have to see if Jeff can grab Pat and Rick too.

Now who's whining... oh wait he's just being his normal troll self. Did you even watch the game because the Broncos never kicked a field goal? Only a touchdown and a two point conversion. Both Peyton and Thomas set Super Bowl records for completions and receptions respectively and Seattle's offense only had a 58% 3rd down conversion rate so Denver did bring their "A" game. They were just dominated by the best defensive and special teams units in the NFL. Back to wheeling... For drivers here's the list so far... Jesse Jake Marcus Nick and myself Possibles: jj421 Eric Josh B. Jeff Nathaniel Reid Like to see some more out there. Any of you guys up north coming down? Josh, Jeff?

That's not all he needs to take back. #BestSuperBowlEVER!!

Yes any wheeler so if Josh wants to come too he's more than welcome. I can lead a caravan out there from Tacoma if you and Nick (or anyone else from the North) want to follow me. We just need to figure out a meeting place and everyone needs to show up early since it takes about an hour to get there. Jesse... can you grab Brian since I will probably have my neighbor along as a co-driver on this trip?.

Enough of the OFF TOPIC TATER TALK!! I thought putting NWWO in subject line was enough but guess I should have specified in the first post "All Washington Wheelers are welcome". The Mid Summer run is the one time of year reserved for you out-of-staters to join in on our mayhem.

You should be fine as long as you don't mind a little body damage.

That's a Saturday you're looking at the wrong calendar.

Update?

Easy run to start the year off and to get others involved. All are welcome. This will be a good chance to shake off the dust and rust that has accumulated over the winter and for the newbies to cut their teeth and see how capable their rigs are. Meet at the staging area at 9:30 and head out by 10. Getting There:From Belfair drive south on Northshore Rd. following the signs for Belfair State park. 3.4 miles from Belfair and just under a mile past the state park entrance turn right onto Belfair-Tahuya road. Follow Belfair-Tahuya road 1.75 miles to the intersection with Elfendahl Pass Road. Turn Right and continue on Elfendahl Pass road for another 2.3 miles to the trailhead. The road to the right is the staging area, the trailhead is on the left side of the road. Meet at the staging area. Get directions from your location using Google Maps

Lookin' good Nick. Let everything settle in before you chop the spring. Having that extra height will help when you're carry a full load in the car.

I want to see some Level 4 action this time, even if you don't take the Forester on it. Just want to see how it compares to what we have here.

High Guys has a 6" for '09 Legacy. Talk to GLoyale and see if he has one for your car.

Less fuel use is great but what about more low range power? That's what we're after.

What vehicle was it for?

Where did you get the snorkel?

Rebirth? No. We just tend to hibernate in winter.

It was still a good day. Since both of our Saturday plans got scrapped, Marcus and I went to the junkyard and picked up some much needed parts. Plus I scored a set of brand new slotted rotors and fresh pads. exbauer you may not want to take out that brand new Forester on the trails unless you don't mind scratches and dents. Tahuya would be ok for the most part and the Pipeline but other than that we typically beat the crap out of our cars and take some body damage along the way.

Can we close this thread!! NWWO isn't coming to an end anytime soon. Holidays, family obligations, and football have kept us all busy as of late. Go Hawks! Jesse and I will be putting together a Tahuya run in February and I'm sure there will be a Walker run March 22 or 29.

Hmm... checked out those links. Seems kinda gimmicky like the chips you can buy that claim to add 10 mpgs. http://www.popularmechanics.com/cars/alternative-fuel/gas-mileage/4310717
