Is the car mobile? I I'll let you know. I have to finish up a Head gasket on a friends Civic, and then I'm free like a bird.

Well, with that being said I may be done with my ride height tonight so I will be free either tomorrow evening or Thursday morning. If you come by my place, it will stop me from having to haul my gerbajillion pound jack around.

I know this has been said before. One of the tuners in Austin recommended a spark plug and I need to replace mine. Cant remember what they were. I just have exhaust on my Evo 8.. I'm probably gonna try and get a boost controller soon. I'm limited on funds for awhile due to some medical issues in family I help with the bill on. So was gonna just do manual, but heard due to temp changes and not as accurate its not worth it. So I can pick up a BC, then found some hks 272 cams for 200 bucks I could pick up. So I was thinking plugs (because maintenance first and they're needed) cams, BC, LICP, and tune for now. I wont install cams until I got money for a good tune. But Recommendations would help. 71k on my 8. I've done some research but thought I'd ask our Hood brothers in arms. Thanks

My friend, what are you really asking? Are you asking if you should purchase spark plugs? And if so, the brand? Or, are you asking about what you should do about the cams, LICP, and boost controller?

Well I know I need plugs. Supposed to be done around 60k service. I only did timing belt job. Which is damn important haha. So yes, the brand, and model for good plugs that yall recommend would be nice. With all these gaps and what not I just get confused. As far as that little setup I put, I feel its a decent one. I guess I was just trying to make sure I wasnt doing a "no-no" or what not. Thanks guys, much appreciative. :-)
