I coulda sworn I read something about CRH selling the harness by itself due to popular demand, but I could be wrong. Anyone confirm?

Yes, you can get the harness in several lengths so you can relocate your coil. Ask BHR or fluids and they will tell you what length avail.

Ok, funny story

.I swore I blew my engine today. I was boosting 10 Psi on the greddy on the highway.. then I heard a loud TING pop. and total power loss. I was so pissed, car was limping, backfiring, and very rough idle. stalling, couldn't get any power out of it.. so I drove it 30 mph all the way home w/hazards on.. I got home. tore into the engine.. and found out I had blown a coupler.. lol, you should have seen me. I was on the ground thanking god.. haha.

So, I'm ecstatic nothing is wrong. Funny thing was, I was thinking about how I was going to tell the girl I was going on a first date with next week that my car was dead.. lol

Yeah, I was pretty hard on the throttle, was with a friend on the highway, A car full of collage girls drove aside us, waved, smiles, then sped off.. well, you know how guys have to show off So, I pushed the pedal down hard, and as soon as that happened, pop..
yeah, I was too pissed to be embarrassed, but if I had known it was just a coupler, the shame would have kicked in

11.5 - 11.7 is a good safe range.

BTW - I popped a coupler too LOL.. driving back from a car show; the only thing that kept me from freaking out was I saw my AFRS go to 10 at idle and I knew what it was... but for a second there.... I was pretty bummed.
