​​​​She's an 02 with 200+ and only just blew out the head gaskets. Gotta be fixed first so I have a ton of parts coming in. Pretty much my back and fourth to work, but ye olde Bose system gave out. I like having some sound so everything to work that portion out is on its way.

I as well, am looking to hone out the cylinders and due to the alusill coating I'm looking for specifics on what grit / compound i should use. I'm honestly at a loss for where to search at this point so now I'm here and finally made an account instead of lurking.
