Do you have issues with coil packs and other electronics going out after the tune?

Not any more than anyone else. Keep in mind that any time you add power (with a tune, a bigger turbo, etc.) you're putting more load on the whole system of the car, so anything that's on the edge might get pushed over. That said, I've only seen the issue with coil packs a few times- both '04 cars.

Someone just asked me about this and I feel like I put my foot in my mouth. Anyway, I'm not trying to say that '04s are worse- the coils go in all the V12s, tuned, not tuned, etc. They're old cars. It was just a weird coincidence that the last 2 I could remember having issues were '04s when I typed this earlier.

Thanks to the great response from this sale, we sold all three sets- the last delivered a few days ago. We'll be putting more on the shelf this month, so PM me if you missed out on this sale. We'll keep this pricing going through the end of April.

I just got my kit and am starting the install. Does anyone know if I need to drain and bleed the IC system if I already have the RENNtech HE and pump installed? It would make for a much faster job if I didn't have to.

You will have to bleed but you won't need to drain with the exception of the old parts that have fluid.

Damn, great price.
Would love to jump on it, but won't be ready until I fall/winter comes around. Don't want to take it apart for the summer as they're very short summers here in Seattle.
