Have the new ignition components fixed any of the mis-firing issues?

Awesome that the coils were an easy fix! And sweeet on a new IC.

I don't know yet. It was raining pretty good yesterday and I'm not about to do some rippers on slick roads.
We'll see when it gets nicer out.

Out with the old, and in with the new. You can see the new is 2" longer, and .5" thinner. Also you can see the external fin spacing difference, and how the ETS is a lot more "breathable".

Looks really nice Brandon! ETS makes good stuff.

I like your old IC's end tank design alot better. hopefully the wider openings between the rows will help with your cooling isues.

I completely agree. The end tank design on my old one is why I went with that one instead of a Kinetic (SBR) one. IMO VPE had the best end tank design on a 1G back-door style FMIC out there. Too bad they aren't in business anymore.
But... The goal here was to get more air to the radiator. A small amount of performance may be lost, but that's ok, there is reason behind it.

I just switched my thermostat in the red talon to a 180 degree and drilled 3 small holes in it. That made a HUGE difference with my car getting hot.
