I got mine cleaned off, but not clean-clean the last time I had the wheels off and the half shafts out.

looking forward to the first report of how it feels with coil-overs.
A little simple green about 8 years ago! The car has maybe 100 miles on wet roads since then.

FYI I'm an instructor with NASA and have hundreds of laps around VIR I'll be instructing at VIR at the February and March events.

Looking forward to watching more of the build!
NO, I'm removing the vacuum system that controls the secondaries, along with the secondary port throttle blades and shafts. The shafts were on bearings so when I removed them it left the open bore where air can be sucked in. Therefore I'm plugging the bores where the bearings were in the heads. The ecm chip has already been tuned for their removal and will run on all 16 injectors at throttle just above idle and up.

She already hit up a co-worker that instructs and I'm attempting to get most of these mods done for the Feb event.
