How did it go? Did you jack up the engine? Did you use OEM coils or something else?
I’ll probably be doing this in a month or two. Not really sure if I need coils or not but I suppose it’s the time to do them.

It went pretty good considering I was kind of intimidated by the job, but once I started I realize it was not bad. I didn't lift the engine and for me it was plenty of space to do the job. The most annoying/difficult thing to do was the bottom bolt for the Fuel Injector computer. I used OEM coils with HKS Super Fire and I changed all coils after developing a misfire in cyl4 and Zach (CSG) recommending changing them along with the plugs.

I set up my Garmin Catalyst. I can't wait to try it out at VIR next month.

Installed the OEM footwell illumination. Super expensive for 2 LEDs but love how they work OEM.

“Danger to the manifold”

strat61caster · 03-01-2023, 07:38 PM

I hope the valves didn’t kiss the pistons.

Am I seeing this correctly? The chain snapped?

Yes.

After the chain tensioner bolts backed out and one snapped. Chain was loose and slapping around, almost made it into the garage but the chain snapped on putting it in reverse. I immediately shut the car off and pushed it in with the help of my dad, mom, and brother.

I think I’m locktiting the chain tensioner bolts this time. 10 ft-lbs in an oil galley felt sketchy when I did it.

Damn that sucks. I will say 10 "hail Tada's" to the broken FA20 parts I have hoping yours is okay.
