This has actually occurred over the past few weeks, not today, but I've only had it a month:
- Install Pioneer AVIC-x940BT Nav Stereo
- Install Megan Racing Springs
- Replace stock Mazda Rims running Yokohama Advan Neova A08s with LM repros running Bridgestone RE760s, the new rims are 9" in back, 8" in front and the tires are 225x45x18 and 235x45x18 w/ 3mm spacers
- Alignment since I had replaced the springs

Drove to my newstand and bought a copy of the latest issue of MODIFIED m'zine with ROTR8's feature in it.
I picked up the one with gregs(below) feature last year.
both have the same name!

I cleaned the throttle body today along with the accordion tube that connects to the intake... There was plenty of gunk collected that I had to remove with a towel; I ended up ordering a catch can today to make sure that doesn't happen again. The MAF and ESS were cleaned as well with sensor cleaner. My next task is to get access to the fuel pump assembly so I can clean the sock filter.

i spent about 4 hours deflooding it, notice the puddle of goo on the ground, and if you're really keen eyed, the caliper is wet, and the fender liner is wet.
can we say compression is good by the distance it shoots crap out of the plug holes?
coil inspection didn't reveal a white spot, they were just melted! i didn't even bother checking them, i just replaced
however new coils, plugs, an airfilter, and a clean ESS, has me a good running car! so i'm pretty stoked.

It looks like you tried to cook it over a stove top oven 
: Well, I went back to OEM cat and will probably put the AP midpipe for sale. GF have been complaining of the exhaust fume, on the upside, I've been getting at least 19 mpg city/hway combined with the AP on my reman' that has almost 7,500 miles in it. Coils, plugs, and filter are due at the end of the month. I'm also replacing the tires with Dunlop Direzza DZ101 at the end of the week
