My first build I had a small leak under the manifold and it soaked my harness - the coolant has such a high vapor pressure that it never really dried out - combine an...

I agree with you on the cop. My ka runs so much smoother than any other I've owned...part of it is the ati damper, but I got think the aem and cop are helping. All of my issues are self inflected at this point. Silly little problems that I caused when I inverted the damn battery
