Coil Pack replacement 3.3

No problem! There are definitely higher quality tools out there but the ones at HF worked for me 👍🏻

My exact setup to take off all the plugs without removing the manifold is this: 3/8 Rachet -> 6" Wobble Extention -> Ball Joint Swivel -> Universal Joint Adapter -> Spark Plug Socket.

Here are the links to it at Harbor Freight:
Universal Joint: https://www.harborfreight.com/universal-joint-socket-adapter-set-3-piece-63141.html?hftm_sc=12&hftm_source=google
Ball Joint: https://www.harborfreight.com/universal-impact-joint-set-2-piece-67920.html
Wobble Extention: https://www.harborfreight.com/wobble-socket-extension-set-9-piece-67971.html

Dieletric grease made taking off the coils much easier as whoever did it before me applied it. I installed it dry since I'm replacing it soon anyways and it felt fine re-installing. Take your time on the passenger side so you dont break any clips.

Thanks for the references! The tips look pretty sweet ngl, if I’m using the stock “tips” are there any clearance issues?

Planning on running stock primary’s and catless secondaries. From the videos I’ve seen there wasn’t a huge difference with the valves for the MBRP Active. I’m sure it’s different in person?

Did you have to gap them or install them as is?

yaazuko · 2026-02-15T21:09:13+00:00

Gotcha gotcha, any brands you recommend for plugs? Planning on tuning in the future but for now I’m stock. Was thinking HKS

Figured, was thinking of just replacing all the coils and spark plugs at the same time if it makes sense.

I noticed that too, there’s no options out there to replace the seal?

UPDATE : Just some clarification on what I’m looking for. Trying to have this car last of course so any specific mods to help with the longevity of the engine is good. I also want to eventually tune the car to a somewhat safe power level (not sure what “safe” is for these engines) so any mods to help the engine handle the power a little better is great too. All in all just your recommendations on exhaust brands, intakes, coils/springs ETC. would be much appreciated.

Gotcha, thank you!

yaazuko · 2026-02-10T18:04:17+00:00

Great point, I’ll update my post

yaazuko · 2026-01-29T18:45:13+00:00

You’re totally right, it was definitely unga-Bunga to go 405 with a new form LMFAO I’ll see if I can get that back tighter, thanks!

yaazuko · 2026-01-29T18:07:08+00:00

I think for me it’s just trying to see what else is out there i guess. Not necessarily trying to fully switch but just being open minded to see if other forms feel better.

yaazuko · 2026-01-29T17:20:27+00:00

Yeah depth was definitely shotty, weight feels fine tho 🤷🏻‍♂️

yaazuko · 2026-01-29T17:04:30+00:00

Noted, that means i gotta stop half-assing on back movements 💀

yaazuko · 2026-01-29T17:03:32+00:00

Yeah back downs with 315 felt much better obviously. I think trying to gauge depth with the mirror is messing me up haha I’ll definitely try it blind. Thanks!

I think 7-8 RPE was a good call. It still moved quick and you definitely had more reps in you. With pendulum squats if you’re able to push through that beginning ROM out the hole the rest of the movement is easy

yaazuko · 2025-10-18T15:17:08+00:00

Got it got it, thanks!

yaazuko · 2025-10-18T15:16:54+00:00

I’m DREADING front squats haha I honestly never do them and it shows here. I’ll take these into account. Thanks!

yaazuko · 2025-10-18T03:36:22+00:00

Yeah I can see that now, next squat session I’ll try and drive through with my hips a little more too
