Yes...but we boosted guys have to remember that cold weather is our friend in the power department. I might hate driving in the cold now, but it wont be fun when i gotta go back to 93 octane in the summer w/o intercooler.
Kevin - sitting fine with 12psi and 87oct. with 35* days.

no intercooler? 87 octane? did i just hear that in the same sentence as boosted? 1) intercool that beyotch
2) use 93
3) enjoy the beauty of boost 200% better

Yea...im quite old skool eh? This car didnt come intercooled stock and i havent had time to put my HUGE Volvo FMIC back in. When i do i'll be running 87oct. and 18psi..mwahaha. Then its time for 22psi and 93oct and then the skys (or my head gaskets) are the limit!
Like i said...i LOVE these cold days.

Holy crap you must be running 6to1 static compression or something..?
The snow is good.. I love the snow. AWD is good.. I love AWD.
I kind of wish that my driveway was dry so I could put my Greddy FMIC on my Talon though..

What size turbo is on the xr4? eheh.. alcohol injection with 118?
lol (non intercooled) you'd need something to take down those IAT's
Yea I know I need to go get this bastard out to the secret garage so the work can commence once I get my short block re-sleeved.

Stock rebuilt Garrett T3 for now. Something bigger will be replacing it i just have too many project cars to be fooling around with this one. I've had this car the longest and im sure as you could agree...the old beater gets neglected the most.
I havent experimented with Alcohol injection......yet. Its on my eventual to-do list. And i can assure you it wasnt 118oct., but was closer to 105.
I swear, your going to get me in trouble if i keep telling you everything i got. Even though there are quite a few secrets no one will know....mwahahaha.
