    Have to agree to disagree. Ive owned two of those v6 turds. Danger slow.

    If it gets above 90* you might get 20whp out of sc. Unless you add a IC.

    Well that's a bit excessive. It really depend on your altitude now. Air density is the frienemy of boost. If you're looking for consistency a FMIC in a must Super, Pro or Turbocharged. If your looking for max performance adding a water meth injection kit to your intake pipe is a good way to go. You can also just use methonal as well it will really bring down cylinder and intake temps. And if youre usong a big enough injector you will need to tune/ code it into your combustion programming. But you'll never not make power.

    You can also add a CO2 fogger for the front mount, chilling it will help with lowering the IT temps

    I paid $1,000 for them. It’s a lot but I really like them and they are new. Do you have a pic of your truck with them?

    Changing the spark plugs for the first time in my "new to me" tundra. 7/8 ignition coils have cracks. On 6/8 the crack is along the plastic seam. Is this a major issue? What catastrophy eventually happens if I continue using these coils?

    Misfires at the most inopportune time. Might be best to have a couple coils on hand just in case or just replace them proactively.

    In addition to what they said, you can get Denso replacements on Rock Auto. Around $57 last I checked.

    Damn, I didn't want to blow over $400 on a spark plug change. $52 ea on rock auto. Oh well.

    Spark plus cost $3/each. Coils go for $52 and don’t have to be changed as often unless they’re the 100k platinum type.

    $400 every 18 years doesnt seem too bad for coils. Still trying to talk myself into getting some msd coils for the 'bling'.

    I figure since 7/8 coils are cracked might as well replace all 8

    Probably wise especially if you plan to keep it for a few years. Just make sure they’re Densos, OE provider.

    Yeah it's not a fun purchase. I did it last year. You could buy one per month for 8 months or just rip the bandaid off.

    mine were almost brown and cracked. The rubber boot that goes onto the spark plug broke off 5-6 out of 8. So honestly, if they’re OEM Denso they probably would have been fine if you didn’t touch them. But since you did (like meeee) I had to use GetInTheZONE coil packs. No, Im not proud, but it was all I could afford at the moment. No ill effect at the moment. But I’m planning on swapping them out in a year for OEM

    Yeah, nobody has reported any issues with them however their customer service is lacking.

    You could always pay a little more and buy them directly from an authorized distributor if you’re concerned about it.

    Or buy from Summit Racing. Price should be roughly the same, often get free shipping, and custom service is awesome.
