Got a new boost gauge and installed it, wired up my boost controller, cleaned the interior and exterior, changed out my sway bar with a DC sway bar from my old integra, realized there is a hole under my stock wing and LOST MY FREAKIN MIND!!!! I was going to mount my carbon fiber Veilside spoiler... :( Stupid stock wing...
