That's a good point Mark. Jay could publish his AirCare results or just his VIN - then anybody can look up his AirCare history and see the difference between the WBX and the Zetec. Dixie needs to go through AirCare before July 9th and I'll share the results. I'm very interested myself to see the difference between the 2.1 WBX and the 2.5 Subaru motor. It won't be an entirely direct comparison because I've swapped transaxles as well but it should be fairly representative.
