At this rate, my truck will be at like 180,000 before a get it done. First track trip will result is some hellacious Oem destruction
speaking of..got the solenoid, fired her and no leaks this time. All I gotta say is DAMN..that 03 turbo is nuts..it is so loud I had one of my neighbors cringing as I drove by...and I wasn't even on the throttle lol..but it is just the down pipe with a new AFE CAI but man that whistle is ridiculous. Thinking I may trade for the 0one from my previous truck

Hey guys do you recommend oem coil packs? I feel like one is going, had them and the plugs replaced about 15-20k miles ago. Also should I make sure the plugs are still torqued to prevent a blow out? (Been there done that)

Oem is the best. I bought the $50 set of 8 on amazon for the new motor since they have great reviews,if they work great,if not oh well its $50.
I'd check the plugs while you're at it
