Welcome to GenVibe, Eugene!You came to the right place for Vibe info.You will find everything you want to know about the Vibe here.Does your girlfriend have a Base or GT? Year? Color? Etc...Nice Evo! 500WHP is that running at 21.3 psi?

its actually not 500whp. 500whp.COM is my friends company and he partially sponsers me by getting parts pretty much at cost. the car isnt really at 500whp (though it will get there soon after i get a bigger turbo). its around roughly 300whp with my mods.my girlfriends car is a red vibe...and thats all i really know. the reason im on this forum now is because when i was changing my own oil, she came up and asked me "Am i supposed to change my oil?" and i asked how long has it been. her reply was "i dont know, my dad took it to get everything done to it". the reason this is bad because her dad moved back to china about almost 8 months ago and i know she drives a hell of alot. but i will figure out what model she has the next time i see her

lol. 8 months, eh?? yikes!and very nice looking evo there. one of our friends has one, not sure what it's running but it's hella fast and running 12's right now. he's hoping to break into 11's this season. i used to have an 03 vibe gt and my hubby has an 04 base vibe. i now have an 05 Subaru Legacy GT. i've done some mods to it and running stage 2. we don't have an awd dyno up here so don't really know what i'm running. but from looking at the other folk's dynos with similar or same mods and transmission as me, they are running about 263 whp/300 lb-ft tq. i'd love to get up to about 300 whp, but don't want to spend the money to get me there. lol. right now, i'm still enjoying what i've got now.

I used to use whatever they give me where I get the oil changed. I've been too lazy to change it myself. The one they give you most places isn't even the same as the OEM filter as it doesn't have the check-valve. I snapped a rod, don't know if that had anything to do with it, but I'm still using what they give me.
