From my FB FS ad:
So it's a WRB 2007 FXT Sport 5 speed manual transmission that just hit 131k miles. I bought it in 2011 with 28k miles. It hasn't been in any accidents but I did have a minor mishap where a Christmas tree fell off a truck on the highway and was knocked into my path. I swerved and luckily just had a glancing blow to the drivers front fender. The only damage was a tiny crease in the fender and the orange reflector inside the headlamp was knocked loose (see pics in my link below). Mods include a catless downpipe, 3" exhaust, and a Cobb tuner with stage 2 program. It has Feal 441 Coilovers, an STi rear sway bar, and an STi short shifter. I also added a Curt trailer hitch, Primitive Racing skid plate, flapatax mudflaps, and a factory rear hatch spolier. The windows were tinted by the original owner. It will be sold on the factory wheels. The timing belt service was done in November of '16 at 102,500 miles, the brakes were flushed in November '17 with new front pads at the same time, all rotors and the rear pads were done within the last 2 years, new radiator installed December '16 and of course complete coolant flush at the same time.

I'm really liking the below, and toying with the idea of making something similar but with a boost referenced valve or perhaps even an external wastegate.
A buddy with an Evo9 had a boost referenced one like this and I was really impressed with low throttle stock quietness and then wot unleashing the fury
So my FXT has now departed for a new home in South Carolina. I have a couple of leftovers if anyone is interested. 1200cc Fuel Injector Clinic injectors with PnP adapters, and a BBK (big brake kit) that uses STI sized rotors with Z32 4pot/2pot calipers, Timken rear wheel bearing & seals.
lol I scrubbed the everliving daylights out of that engine/car. what's left is corrosion/permanent aging marks, which will never come out. bums me out, but such is life
hahaha
I thought I was boring everyone with the non-stop pics of it.
I finally started to feed the power back into it, it's in the upper 300's right now on E60. I think I'm going to do 1 more oil change before I up the boost to 25 and let-er-eat on E85

I don't have time to hit the strip 10 min from my work, let alone drive many hours down to your neck of the woods on a Wednesday to sit in line for hours just to make a couple passes
However, I do 100% plan to throw together a tailwinded downhill Sac Raceway field trip with a bunch of my friends in the near future. You sir, have an open invitation to join us when that happens.
And then we can all drive down to Mexico for some fun runs
