I have heard very good things...it won't leak though, which is what I care about most :)
Mike, I am sure those other plugs are solid, but I needed some sooner than those would of came...well maybe i do (i don't like parts holding stuff up) and for over double the price, I'll stick with something that has been shown to work...I do get a little nervous about the insulator from the plug falling in the cylinder though.

I was being facetious in that post...no way I'd buy those plugs when the stockers work so well. I assume the insulator issue is heat-related and less likely with E85.

Oh have you seen the stuff about getting longer set screws and such?
IF you want them I have them still i think.

For the synapse? I haven't.
Didn't hear any problems with it yet, they just released a new version with an integrated port C and its the evo specific one so I hope it works alright. I have seen 1 or 2 complain that the set screw might leak, is that what you meant?

I can't find it, but something about the set screws that attach teh bov to the flange are really short, I got longer ones that someone did a writeup on recommended.
The longer screws help to make it seal better.

^Well I guess when I have a car and the bov we can play with it if need be. Thanks for the offer on this, hopefully the new version doesn't need adjusting but who knows. I will hit ya up if I need em.

Wow, 2 weeks since my last post, that has to be a record, if I wasn't so bored right now I wouldn't even post, lol.
I exchanged an email or two with Danny today, I sent him a pic of what FP sent for my oil line kit and it looks like they forgot a banjo bolt and the oil line filter for the kit...LAME. I asked him jokingly almost, so since you are working on the turbo you are close to putting the engine in and he said yea real close. So I am not positive but it sounds like this stupid banjo bolt and filter could be the only thing from starting to drop the motor back in. SHIT, if this is the worst of my build problems I will be all grins.
I am very concerned about my injectors working out, seems like a coin flip for the new DW 1300's to work, i guess we will see. I really doubt this friday will happen, i hope to be driving the car next week sometime though :)

Damn, there is more to dave then whores and cars! ;)
But since you ask, this weekend looks promising, but hopefully something more than a one night stand. Time will tell.
On a side note, my roommate is moving out, anyone needs a place I have an open room for pretty cheap I think for what you get :)
