    Cleaning the Inside Rim

    The topic of ceramic coatings has also been beat to death already on this forum, but in my personal opinion even a decent repellant spray works pretty good at keeping dust/grime low on the wheel barrels. Since you are looking for minimum effort, products like this don't work forever but do work...

    Oil change schedule

    while true, i would be interested to see your dealer fill results. mine, as well as others have shown a different viscosity than spec'd in the book.

    Oil change schedule

    I plan to wring the neck of this vehicle any and every chance i get. Mobil 1 full synthetic changes every 3500miles. I send my oil out for analysis with every change. If Blackstone decides to comment on my strategy, I will probably heed their advice.

    Interior Carpet

    Yeah, just go to a carpet store and ask to see their cut nylon pile or their essex in black. get a few swatches and take them out to the truck and match your best. If you want to go the perfect OEM match route I'm sure you could order a rear cargo area carpet kit from any dealer and then cut it...

    Interior Carpet

    are you looking for something to match the softer stuff or the rougher stuff in the cargo area? if this is for a trunkliner or speakerbox, most people use cut pile (the rougher stuff). the softer alternative is called Essex carpet. most any carpet supplier can get you cut pile or Essex in any...

    Window tint %?

    Since nobody really answered your question, don't do clings. Just have a professional installer do tint the appropriate way. It will last longer and not fade, chip, or peel. The answer is actually 30%. A 20% will be too dark. Most tints come in 5, 15, 20, 30, 35, 45, 55, and 70%. Since your...

    Obessed Garage

    I much prefer Larry and his Ammo products. The Obsessed guy was allright until he bought his GT4... Then he kinda turned into a douche.

    Wheel Forging Cores

    For those out there who might be plugged into the manufacturing portion of this country a bit more than me. Does anyone other than HRE make their wheels out of forgings that were done in the US? I know that HRE gets their raw cores from Aluminum Precision Products but wasn't sure if anyone else...

    Extra amp and subs

    Its hard to tell from this pic but where you able to retain the spare tire in the well, or is it gone now? I'm looking at taking a similar approach but was looking at how to frame and build up the area high enough that the backsides of the subs cleared the spare.

    is it sacrilage that whenever i see that image, i imagine what a DONK'd ST would look like? ... and then think it would be cool. :unsure:

    What turbosmart BOV for the 21 ST?

    Irrespective of horsepower, the stock blowoff valve was designed for stock power. An upgraded blowoff valve provides for more stable boost pressures, which in turn helps prevent boost from bleeding, which increases spool speed. At the power levels you seem like you are after, compressor surge is...
