Kane before you go blowing up your engine, try the new wires first from Ray.

I guess I should just stick to BURNING nitrous instead of breathing it.

Surprisingly, the only problem I ever have is that it likes to bog down from 7 to 9000 rpm. I've ran the car on Nurburgring for over an hour before and had no problem with overheating or engine problems besides the high revving.

Right now I'm running between 8:30 and 8:40 minute range with a top speed on 235 kmh. So that means I'm giving it hell each time I go out and it seems to like it

Well, I had my battery tested this morning, and it's good. So I don't think the battery causes the hot-start issue. And I don't think it's the started either. My car is getting worst now. The engine is vibrating bad at idle. It has something to do with the ignition. I didn't mention this before. I did pull the spark plug wires off when installing the coils which I'm not supposed to, but it makes the install easier (for me), and I was very ease on the wires. So I don't know if it's the wires or what.

Well i had some fuel starvation issue on some fast turns and heat issues that i managed to solve with mazmart's pump. Maybe because i track my car mostly in the summer?

Well, in the instructions it is clearly stated tha the coil terminals are fragile and (going by memory) that you don't have to pull the cables.
You probably have damaged coil terminals but i suggest that you wait for a reply from Charles

I'd coordinate with Charles Hill and see what can be done about it. With the kits we've seen come back, even weak crimps at the terminals might cause issues.

I wonder if there's any doubt now about HOW you stand behind your products Charles.
Keep up the good work!
