Just as a warning, the last time my car threw the p0351 code I happened to be data logging at the track. I was only getting the code above 6000 RPM. Later that night when I looked over my data logs, turns out I was getting fairly significant knock above 6000 RPM (-4 to -5 degrees FLKC) from the failing ignition coil. If you're planning to drive the car hard in the upper RPM range, probably best to replace the coil ASAP. As mentioned above, it's not too difficult, just a little annoying.
