Damn why can't you have S2's for sale!!!!!!! My plugs come out looking good with just the normal black carbon on them with a slightly greyish white tip. They always look the same and there seems to be no sign at all of oil anywhere. I may be totally wrong in thinking something is wrong with the car it just might be more like it is setup with the wrong parts who really knows? I do know the tune is spot on I am pusing MAD air through it 300-315 load and only making 380-390WHP in warm weather and 420-430WHP in cold weather.
