Ok guys I have noticed the past 2 times I have started up my car it sounds like theres a miss in the motor. I have checked everything. the only thing I can think of is my exhaust mani's front bolt (behind the powersteering) needs helicoiled but im holding off untill I get my new setup since I do not drive the car it's just parked in my garage for the time being. Any idea's? Oh and no codes i already checked.

How long has it been parked? I'm thinking it could need new plugs and wires as well, but I'm not a mechanic, nor do I play one on T.V...............good luck

Another situation that brings up the "then why worry about it?"

Thats a huge ass list of things you've done to the car, btw. I skimmed through it saying "Ill take that... that... that and that...." but being poor sucks.

Seriously though, if it went away once it was warmed up, I personally wouldn't screw with it. Mine has a slight miss in it all the time, and I don't worry about it even then because it still runs/drives good.

well im trying to make sure it's 100% by this spring since im getting ready to order my maft-pro and new turbo in the next few weeks. I just want to make sure it is running 100% before I take it to opening day to do some test and tune on it.
