GFB DV+ diverter valve installed. Not complicated, and only a little awkward to work around my Cobb CAI. I haven't wrung it out yet, just once around the block to make sure it still runs and didn't throw any codes.

Took it out on the highway to listen to the turbo. With the DV+ it doesn't make as much blow by noise when cruising at highway speeds, but I still hear the gasp when I'm shifting, especially going uphill. No dramatic changes in performance.

Finally got to do her annual blood transfusion last night. Really enjoying my new setup. Again, no spills, no mess (even did the oil filter ziploc baggie trick), music cranked up, lights on, even took a break to eat while she drained. Took her for a drive afterwards. Delish.

AMSOIL ftw!!!

First wash of the year, finally. Still not really what I'd call clean but at least she's not embarrassingly grimy.

I didn't want to put them in 3 different threads, so I just posted them in my Cruise Night Pics thread:

Turbosmart IWGA and turbo blanket. That heat shield is a royal pain. Then out on the highway to see if it still ran and finish the recommended Eradispeed brake rotor seasoning process.

Holy crap, that was a heck of a confidence builder. I had never tried a high speed hard stop before. This thing stops on a dime.

Great looking cars, thanks Gabe!

The retro fix on the '95 T-bird is a bit weird though.

Took it to get a haircut.
The 10-minute drive back somehow turned into a 40-minute "long way home"

Enjoying the passing zones

Thanks Burton ..... my haircuts usually take about 20-30 minutes. It's one of them fancy salon places, my wife goes there, she got me going. The hairdresser chick is quite cute, I don't mind, lol.
And yeah, 40+ minute drive back

Yesterday I put about 165 miles on the car. Great drive.
In the morning I re-aligned my mufflers since the driver side tip had started sagging for some weird reason. Had to adjust both. Now perfect inside their cutouts.
