heh.. interesting.. i wanna see how the car runs now before worrying about intakes. Just put in the RB plug wires. The car started, so that's a good sign. It seems to be idling better, revs don't fluctuate as much. Didn't have time for a drive, so we'll see how that goes later.. Saw a lot of 'white' on the plugs, but it seems that is normal according to the other thread on it. I think Im going to change my plugs and wires tomorrow morning. then I will report back.

I just checked my plugs this evening and two of my plugs were nice and brown, but two of them were black and rather coated. One of them was almost 'bridged' with carbon. Soooo...I checked my coils. I dont know if this is logically linked, but two of my coils are not checking out (using TeamRX8's corrected rx8 manual post); my rememberance being the coils hooked to the bad plugs.

Be it as it may, I may not be checking the coils correctly or reading the multimeter correctly, but without doubt two coils are behaving differently from the other two. (Two have several kOhms across +A-B and +B-C while the other two show max resistance between either of these two posts: +C-A is max for all.)

I am assuming that the whole set should be replaced, correct? Makes no sence to do two, right?
