New side sills, flat undertray, and gigantor diffuser (large pics)

Had a shakedown test day at BW today, nice to be back in the car on a track and not in the office (!)

Sills are more like very wide running boards and keep the car very clean - and like others I have that hoover/hair buzzer thing on my car a la' Brent and Tim (muchas gracias guys)

Holy Cow Batman! Can you still clear speedbumps? Will it make it into the gas stations at Lost Hills?

Very cool!

haha Andy, I am pretty sure I can run around buttonwillow faster than I drove today - they threw me in the race group and I certainly wasn't the fastest out there by any stretch of the imagination. I wasn't running my timer either - I haven't been on a track since...Streets in the early spring? Everything was too fast so just slowed it down and got reacquainted with the car. Kris from DRS came out for support, we tried some different throttle settings, etc. it was great. And I gotta say driving back home in the subie is a million times more relaxing than driving home in the lotus -

oh the other effect today had was I have very little interest in building out the sc/motor on the subie now lol - it's pointless, this little grey monster I have is crazy fast (we'll see how long this lasts)

I really love it, couldn't stop staring at the car. I thought it was going to have a big Innovative Mounts sticker on the side?

The proportions on the diffuser are almost cartoonish. Same with the spoiler. Pretty cool.

Love the work you've done. No doubt you will get a lot more questions from people. Just tell them its stock.

Hey AJ what is the model of the pump you are using for your heat exchanger system? It looks like mine finally took a crap in the last lap of my last outing, post intercooler temps were 110-120 all day then suddenly shot up to 250, the center heat exchanger was cool to the touch so looks like nothing was flowing to it. And are you running one or two? water and oil temps were great all day, the side mount definitely is working very well -
