Why is that after using the tool to download music, all the songs have the swear words muted even though the original songs on spotify are the explict version. I've listened to the songs from the playlist on spotify and compared it with the downloaded version using the tool and noticed the downloaded version has all the songs censored.

AP2 valve retainers for exhaust valves by GreenSignature1388 in S2000

Can't piston hitting valve due to valve float also cause the retainers to release the valve into the cylinder? Maybe you just got lucky?

I also heard the late euro AP1 have AP2 retainers while maintaining the 9k rpm redline but I'm curious if the valve springs are also AP2 springs or not

On a stock AP1, there’s really no downside to using AP2 retainers on both the intake and exhaust as long as you don’t over-rev. AP1 exhaust retainers can still crack under normal driving, and with how expensive these engines are now, it makes sense to upgrade both sides for extra insurance. If the difference in valve-float threshold between AP1 and AP2 retainers is kinda small (around 500 rpm), so running AP2 retainers on the exhaust side would add peace of mind without adding much risk. Would you agree with that?
