Burnt coils !!
I had to drive my friends TC for 2 days while my 8 was sleeping with 4 burnt coils.
Had to pay 150 for a set of 4 from a dealer. I know I could have gotten them for 100, but I didnt want to wait till next week for shipping.

damn dude.. long nail!!
also.. i know someone else will bring this up but those marks on the bottom of the coil are NOT indicative of a burnt coil.. the only way to check if a coil is truly gone is with a timing light. there is no visible test.
that said $150 isn't terrible.. i mean deducting tax maybe down to $135? so not too bad.
online cheapest you can get them is $125 shipped... and then you have to wait for them to be shipped.

My car lost power really bad.
And car was kinda shakey.
So I jumped on this forum, and some people said its the coils.
Changed that right away (since I gotta change them soon anyways)
Right after they were changed, car ran good as new.
And about the TC, I HATED IT. My buddy has a Megan cat-back, and its LOUD as hell, even with the silencer on.
