If I can get the subaru into the tuner before then I may come down!

 

[Cottontail]

Do it!

 

[FlexdXJ]

Do it!

Its getting lifted XJ mileage currently! The o2 sensor has no idea what it's doing with all the extra air being shoved out of the turbo!

 

[PacificEd]

If no one has any objections, it would be nice to pull the engine/trans/transfer out as a solid unit from the 2001. That way the motor is out for a future project and it makes it a bit easier to split on the ground.

If anyone want to do a silly little project to their Jeep, I'm bringing an extra hatch strut that can be used on a hood to replace the prop rod. I did it on mine and it is a pretty nice upgrade.

None on my side. Let's do it!

I am planning on getting to Ed's around 7:30

 

[Cottontail]

I'm planning to leave my house at 5.

I've gotten almost everything done I wanted to before Saturday other than removing the passenger side nut strip. There are two studs that hold the exhaust hanger on that are completely rusted. Since I can't get those to budge, I'm can't remove the nut strip. I'll worry about that on Saturday. I also just re-did my silicon gasket on my 8.8 because it was leaking ridiculously. I haven't put oil back in it yet so please... remind me to fill it back up before we head out Saturday! LOL.

What about food???

We can't work all day without eating something. Let's everybody bring something for lunch or brunch or dinner, whatever you want to call it.

1. High2by - Chili, Fritos, shredded cheese

Ed, do you have an old coffee maker, or a large coffee urn for hot water? If so I can bring some hot cocoa mix. We may need something warm, especially early in the morning and late into the afternoon.

[FlexdXJ]

I'm out fellas, Subaru needs more tuning before she's ready for a long trip.

Bingo. You make it sound through these written words like its blasphemy. First I don't think you know the entire story line here. Second I don't think you read the entire thread. The 01 motor is NOT going into the 97. Even if it did so what?
