Ok I am officially down for the ~$300 AP2 Retainer upgrade and adjustment.

 

Are there any drawbacks or down sides to using the Eibach dual springs?
I know absolutely nothing of the engineering standpoint of this, and someone told me that it would cause a powerloss due to the increased spring rates, is this true?

 

I got a message from Marcucci this morning that s2k Mozo has backed out on the deal. I am still waiting for Mozo to call me or post his status.
I still want the work done so if others are interested maybe we can still make this happen.

 

If I was still out that way, id be damn sure to get it done, its good insurance.

 

I have a MY05' with 53k miles.... is a valve adjusment recommended?

 

That depends on how many times the valves have been adjusted during those 53K miles? I think they should be adjusted a couple times during the first 10K, then once at 20K, then again every 15K after. Of course, I like to keep mine adjusted at the "optimal" clearances with no slop.

 

uhhhh. bought the car with 30k, im now at 53k. Ive never done it and would gaurentee it was never done before me. I guess im in for a valve adjustment but im coming from Miami so it would take me about 2-3hours to get there.

 

Hmmm... then I would go ahead and do at least 3 valve adjustments ...

 

What else should I have him look at while im up there? Ive done diff fluid changes, MTF changes, oil changes, Intake and cabin filter changes.... any other recomendations?

 

Have him check your prostate!
