New plugs, NGK 6E11's I re-gapped to 0.037". The old plugs were 6E11's too, but were gapped at 0.046+", I now have no hesitation issues at WOT. All cylinders showed clean burns, except #2, which looks oil-heavy.

Installed Fuel Cut Defender so I can raise the boost to 14psi.


Noticed that after 40min of hwy driving, I went to park and got some torque bind and felt some weird "slipping" as I did the parallel maneuvers. Not sure what the deal is there, but I'll be watching it....I suppose I should probably jack the car up and measure the rotations on all four, huh Scott? :-o
I think you're just joking, but just in case you're not: if the rear-end is the wrong ratio, you can't drive more than about 4 feet w/o massive shuddering, so I'm pretty sure you're okay.
