Reason: Last picture didn’t load
I've used helicoil/etc many times. They work great!
Since last posting on the thread, I've added a strut tower tow hook, e85 sensor/gauge for flex fuel, went back to 17x9.5 RPFs that I'll be selling soon LOL... After the tires are done and I have the new rear control arms. Purchased X front calipers.
Alcantara cover for the steering wheel, roll bar, maybe, back to a stock turbo. Repainted the front end. Installed a Weir 12 plate rear diff, CF driveshaft. Man, I've done a lot LOL
There's more ,but I can't remember.
How annoying was the steering wheel wrap to do? My "leather" is starting to peel, so I've been considering a wrap.
Got my Curt Brown refreshed cylinder head with added gsc 5040 springs in the mail today and I’ve always been very happy with everything I’ve ever sent him.
Finished my break in miles and dropped it back off at the shop for it be all buttoned up and put the power back in it
8 pounds on 6262 and being limited to 5k just ins't very satisfying. When I dropped it of I tried to clutch in on the DD and smacked the **** out of the brake... forgot it was auto.
I found out that cylinder 2 has a misfire. What are all possible causes of this misfire? Changed the spark plugs, and it still misfired. Switched the coils around, and it still misfires. I’m thinking it’s the fuel injector.
