Winners, Coil on Plugzes!

I'm not sure how many miles are on the motor, I should keep track of stuff like that. 1500 from break-in, another 3000 from driving to work and tuning on pump gas and then the switch to E85, and another couple thousand of WOT track miles (those are the good ones).

jid2, as an engineering student in college, I have to say I really like the way you map and data log things, you show a true passion for the field. If I am able to do half of the engineering you do, I will be a pretty good at engineering.

Yeah then you can stop design engineering and become an engineering project manager like I just did! Gotta pay the billz.

Drove the car a few more times to work and nothing but clean pulls. I just put the regular gas in the tank for storage mode in the garage during the winter.

I'm in aerospace to learn all i can about aerodynamics. Hopefully i can apply it to motorsports.

Finally upgrading the rear rotors from my stockers that are super worn out. And adding some Ti shims for the front, and new pads out back.

Bling-Bling, zoom-zoom, stop-stop.
