Nothing really, just eating a bag of chips and reading threads.

And believe it or not, if you drive conservatively, you'll only use about 1/4 of the tank driving to here and back. I took dozer to Mt Baldy in his car and we only used 1/4 of the tank... and that was with casual and semi-spirited driving up and down the mountain. The same goes for my 8 too...

I never changed my coils but I did changed my plugs at about 30k miles.

BTW: I had the highest whp (Without the AP or any kind of engine management. Stock everything except for plug wires and intake) at one of the SoCal Dyno Days before I changed my plugs so I knew I didn't have to change my coils.

It really depends, some coils die prematurely while others tend to last a while. It's really just random... but then again, I noticed that I had a different part number for my coils as opposed to the 04/05's. Mine was an 06.

BTW, anybody on www.nationofgo.com ? I've been a member there ever since the website was launched but I don't really know anybody there.

What is Nation of Go you ask? It's a hardcore track enthusiast website. It's a compilation of data of all the race tracks in the US and the best mountain roads.

Ha, 1 year too late n00b!

Anyways, join Nation of Go, they have many updates on events that goes on around the US, hence the reason why I'm always posting meets and events like the meet at Eibach and Stillen, along with some pretty neat cruises and track days.
