I did it, gains are nice, but I wanted to hurry plugging the hole and at the end of the day, I caused a busted third cylinder piston or rings, several bent valves, a blown head gasket(thats atleast what a mechanic buddy told me), and in the process of trying to get it home in this condition I blew a second gear synchro and wore out my clutch, but like I said, gains were nice, just with that hole, use a pipe tap, dont use a vaccum plug like it says on the faq

O yea and about that staying open a hair at throttle, really easy to fix, triple wrap the spring then use a washer to keep it seperated from throttle body base, works wonders, mine closes completely now.

Hey NAeclipsematt, how the hell did you triple wrap it? that damn thing is fucking hard as hell to wrap...what size washer did you use?

Mine works fine. I've had it for a while now at it works sweet. shuts all the way and all. I might change the plug now but how did it mess up your engine that bad?
