The new Bosch filters are great. Expensive.

I have DBP. I wish I had white.

I forgot to mention that I don't have flashpro. I really need to get it, based on what I read around here.

I'll report back after the reset. Thanks for the info.

No mods. How do I reset the ECU? I am running 93 octane shell v power as always, but I get it from different stations sometimes.

Hey guys. I don't post much but lurk pretty regularly. I have a 2012 si coup in dyno blue, purchased in January of this year. Recently I have noticed it has started to feel slower, doesn't pull quite as hard, etc. I especially noticed tonight when pulling onto the road to my house. Normally, in...

Fontana lodge is 4 hours from my doorstep. I will leave around 10:30 to give myself some time to play. Weather looks like rain today and tomorrow, but clears up great Monday!

Get this thread to the top. Looking forward to seeing you guys soon! I am excited. Been busy with school lately, to explain the inactivity. How many people do we have coming as of now?

Thanks for the comments on the pictures. Amazing what the new iPhones are capable of!

See, that is just unacceptable IMO. With the 8th gen horror stories I read about clear coat failure and paint fading dramatically, you would think they would step it up. I really believe an outstanding paint job would be worth paying a little extra for, but I am biased toward shiny stuff. Oh...

Thanks guys, I feel very welcome here. I love my car. Drives great, good fuel economy. I love almost everything, but only have one complaint.. The paint. This paint is SO soft. It chips if you breathe on it wrong. I am a sucker for good paint and an avid detailer, so this kind of bums me out...

Hate to do this,because I don't want to come off boasting, but I haven't shared it anywhere else yet. Picked up a 2012 SI coupe DBP with 14,900 miles from a semi-local dealer. I know the guy, and that helped me cut down on the title and tag fees. Ended up giving me the car OTD for what he was...

Hey everyone, short time lurker and glad to be a part of the community. Joined a few weeks ago after coming across some good information from Bruce Bartlow on lubricants. My name is Dylan, and I am a full time student at the University of South Carolina. I recently picked up a 2012 SI coupe...

How about M1 0W-20 AFE? I get that stuff for pretty cheap too. If I decide to go this route, I will send in a lab test at 7000. After, I will run Amsoil signature 0w-20. Lab test. See if I get any difference.. any other ideas?

That's interesting. There is so much conflicting evidence in this field. Reading on BITOG seems like a war, no one agrees. I'd really like to help the cause but I'm not sure I want to be the guinea pig.. not out of any selfish mindset, just worried about using an oil that the vehicle doesn't...

Great info, thanks. I am looking hard at the Amsoil signature 0w-20, I can pick it up at a good price through a friend who is an amsoil dealer. Any recommendations for or against? How about you just tell me what to do, eh? I figured since you have done all of this research, you are using the...

Also, what about the Royal Purple 0w-20 oil? In my limited experience in lubricant prices, $7.86 per quart from Amazon sounds pretty good for the rave reviews the stuff is getting.

I'll keep that in mind! I am not far at all actually, in South Carolina. I didn't know about The Dragon until visiting this site, after buying this SI.. I was 10 miles from it last October and didn't even realize it! I hope to see some of you there soon. It seems like a good quality Class 4...

Hate to hi-jack the thread.. especially as my first post. I came across this awesome thread through mediocre google-fu and have learned a lot, especially from Mr. Bartlow. Questions: Is the RedLine MTF bad to use instead of factory fluid, or has it been tested yet? Bruce, have you done any more...
