    Dude you're almost done, I can't wait for the triumphant return of this thing.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    I'll try my best to get the downpipe shipped this week. I'm just going to make a box for it. Go to the subaru dealer and get that gasket for the downpipe. I don't remember the part number, but I can get it for you if you need the number.

    LOL, thats the same thing i did. My A/C didnt have a belt and it looked beat so i decided to take it out instead of putting money into it when i dont use it anyway. It was a good amount of weight though between the compressor, bracket, condensor, bolts and lines.
