I went with 6000 in my wrx, they're not phillips but that are great! 6000k is probably the best temp. for visability. I think you'll definately be happy with them

^Cool. Thanks! Yeah I figured anything over 6000K was overkill but wanted to upgrade from the 4300K.

Still no ARC parts. This house stuff is killing me. Hopefully I get some EVO parts this summer. I just destroyed the whole rear axle assy on my Jeep this past weekend so now I have to replace all of that. Bad timing...

wow good luck with that homie

OK so I swapped the ballast out right there at Carlisle after my trouble shooting proved it was a bad ballast box the night before. Bought it off a shop at the show for 50 bucks! They are like $549 at the dealer! Now I have both Philips working great! Got the ARC Ti heat shield on and the ARC Ti gradient plug cover on the UPS truck as I type this. So that will be on tonight! Got the shift knob coming too and should be here Friday or Monday I figure. Going to get the oil cap and then that is it for ARC candy. Time to get back to the power! Turbo probably ain't gonna happen this year but I plan to get the car ready for it over the winter with some new ARP studs, ported IM, and ported 65mm TB as well as a install my Perrin intake tube and get the thing flashed. It should then be ready to hanlde 26psi all day long. CBRD hasnt released the turbo I am buying yet anyway so no rush. Pics tonight of the ARC engine stuff!

great seeing you at carlisle so sorry i wasnt able to chit chat i was pretty much on my way out. deff gonna have to meet up again soon, here or your place and drink some drinks haha.

Thanks John. I will be in Jtown Memorial Day weekend. We should get the old crew together like old times and have a few cold ones fo sho.

Here are the pics of the engine. Originally I wanted everything under the hood black but the valve cover but I think this is a nice contrast and just a little bit of JDM flava to match the rims and other exterior mods. The shift knob is on its way! Then onto the head studs and supporting mods for the turbo upgrade!
