Either im just bad or ur really good but i couldnt get the connectors too pull back away from the coil packs. The bundle of wires coming from over the top of the engine doesnt have any slack in it for me too pull them. I got them loose/off but theres not even slack. Im tempted too just put more force into moving them but i have a feeling theres rlly just not enough play:/
Insufficient spark under high compression will cause incomplete burning of the air/fuel mixture. The unburned fuel can ignite again in the cylinder due to the heat of compression which is "detonation" or "knocking". The engine's computer will compensate by "playing it safe" and reducing the timing, aka making the spark plugs fire later, to avoid knocking. This reduces power. It's all a balancing game to achieve the ideal air/fuel mixture and igniting it at the right time to achieve the ideal burn which achieves optimal power on each stroke. Running higher boost pressure means balancing other components like the spark plugs to maintain this ideal burn.
I believe ngk says no to anti seize , not needed and can lead to over torque
Where did you find the information that the torque was 20 ft lbs?
also make sure the engine is warm, try doing this on a cold engine those coil packs will be a bitch to come out
Good tip. The coils can hold on pretty tightly.

Did you feel any difference in everyday driving?? I want to add this to my stock gli so it can run stock but top tier
I will do it thank you for your videos
Great video
Thanks!
So what does this do. What does it mean to get better timing.

His engine was definentlyy warm
Did you get any codes or issues with the ARP’s?
No codes or issues
Looking into getting these.. do they come individually or in pairs? Probably a silly question lol
I bought them as a set of 4
did you feel any different in the engine
Any effect in performance will be hard to feel... top end pull should be more consistent and proper ignition will protect the engine from damage.
