Harness replacement to deal with the CP issue is overkill. Oil temps on a track car are a much bigger concern (but can be dealt with).
Thanks for the info. I did see I also have the option of buying better coils as well so that’s an option if I do run into issues. When your cp failed was your car unusable? As I posted before I did hear waiting for them to cool down and clearing the code was enough to get going again. But maybe this isn’t always true.

Thanks
