To me this is serious stuff, the community would greatly appreciate your planned video how-to I'm sure others are resorting to DIY just to avoid a disaster.

Even though I've worked on cars all my life a gas DI system concerns me a little as far as leaving the slightest leak causing a fire, the fuel is under a lot of pressure.
+1 Exactly how I would describe how mine sounded before the intense popping started in the engine bay. Mine will make the micro-explosions above 5k rpms in pretty much any gear 1st through 4th.
