    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So in October I did a manifold and ko4 swap. Have also 3" test pipe, forge diverter, Apr silicone intake hose, but still using smic.
    On the way to sowo lost 2 coil packs, replaced. Underhood was extremely hot!!! Now in the summer heat having all sorts of heat related issues. Anything plastic like coolant flange, pcv and related hoses, more coil packs ect, done.
    So all that said installing intake manifold spacer, fmic, heat wrap on down pipe ect. Any other ideas would be awsome thanks!

    Engines will always be hot in the summer. Only other things I could think of recommending would be just lifting your hood up after a drive if possible to let the heat escape quicker (saves some plastic parts) and adding water/meth injection.
