    I had the parts sitting here for quite some time and finally just got under the hood and wired it all in. My only question at this point is what spark plugs should I use to take advantage of the 2.0 coil packs? I have a K04 turbo (Borg Warner) and APR stage 1 software, FMICm exhaust, etc, the...

    Yesterday I replaced the coolant flange on the back of the cylinder head because of a seal leak, what a PITA! While doing this and leaning on the engine and cursing the German engineers, I broke off the plastic tabs on both sides of the front coil pack connector. I have searched all over the...
