My 38K mile 93 SSM build

Man I hate that for you. I was wondering what was going on with this build. Your car only had 38k on clock right? How did all this happen. Its good you moved your coils back to the stock location. Your mounting location was right next to your steering rack, which is about the worst place you could have put them. Besides you never hear of the FD having a problem burning out coils with the stock set up. I think someone was just trying to sell you something.

How did your turbos go out so quick? Your car is mostly stock right? Unless you run high boost the stock turbos are almost always good for 80 to 100k. I know hind sight is 20/20 but i think your biggest mistake was going that deep into a prestine FD to begin with. That and not having someone with you who is knowledgeable about FDs to help you out.

Well I hope you get it all sorted out and start enjoying your 7 again.
