ughhh... i dont wanna have to pay for those bad boys... hopefully once i tune her up it will start fine and ill start seeing at least 20mpg on the highway.. 18 is killer
trust me, no one wants to have to pay for em. I tell ya what tho, since you didn't get my steeda tips, when I get my weapon X coils in, you can have my stock set, or even the MSD set of CoP's if you'd like, 40 bucks shipped.
I still have the stock 03's, and the MSD ones.

Plugs- Anything but champions
air filter- clean or replace
Fuel filter- replace (your dad should see what came outta my 94 jeep, fuel isnt suppost to be dark brown)
battery- test it at local parts store, if bad replace, good overnight trickle charge
dont forget oil change if its due, and inspect the belt/pulleys

haha i forgot about those steeda tips!! did u see what i did? i ended up dremeling off the inner exhaust tip on each side of my catback... looks legit now. looks like an exhaust should
that sounds like a deal... but i want to see if the basics will fix her up before i go and buy other things... if the tune up doesnt work, $40 will be coming ur way lol

Yeah, they look really good, I saw your thread back when you did it.
I finished putting the SRA back in yesterday, so I'm not running dumps anymore, and the tips are a nice touch, and quiet it down a bit.
Hope you get it running right.

I'm going to get another degree, possibly my masters, and I'm leaving home and going to live in an Apt on campus. I won't have the time/money to road race for quite a while, so I'm converting to a drag setup, with a Manual valvebody 4R70W and I already have the SRA in. New MT's are being delivered, hopefully the car will see consistent 10.2-10.1's, with slightly more power added.
Just something to do on the weekends while I'm away at school, and i didn't want the extra weight of the IRS/bracing.
I had a thread in OT about it

I wouldnt go with anything but NGK TR series spark plugs. And i think TR55's are stock heat range...or maybe it was the TR7's. Its one of the 2 and i have neither. Im running TR6's and they run great. Dont really know how much different spark plugs would change the butt dyno but id go with stock heat range.
