I'm from NH (southwest)...and I'm glad it wasn't as bad as it sounded. I am just afraid to start tackling these issues myself...haven't even done my first mod yet . Thanks for the pep talk.

No problem, go for it! I would recommend having another set of hands to help you, you'll need it to help hold one end of the wrench and turn the other with some force on it. I got in there!

Now I see it was designes for zzp stage 4 blower setup. Hum there site only lists 3 levels now, that'* weird?
The stage 4 blower is not listed on their site because it isn't technically released yet. You just have to call them and tell them you want a stage 4. They are, or at least were when we got the one for the GTP, $550.

Anyways, what wires and boots were on the GTP? Still stock coils?
The GTP has 8.5mm MSD wires (I don't think they are available anymore IIRC) and stock coils. Zooomer himself said that different coils don't do anything for performance for our cars, and he has run a best of 11.780 on his stock coils, so I think he may know what he is talking about. The SSEi has 8mm Taylor wires and I like them better they stay on the coils better and you can use the boot protectors on them, you can't on the MSD'* because the boots are too big.

Like Taylor said, it is normally an easy task. I did it 10 times before I had a problem like this. It is easy to do, don't worry about it. But, it is definately a good idea to have someone else there to help you out, you really have to put some muscle into it, and it is nearly impossible with 1 person, you really need 2, since there are 2 wrenches you need to turn.
