Just because he wanted to. I do mine every 40k. Some do 50k, some do 100k if they have iridiums.

Correct...I'm at nearly 50k miles and figured that since I had it all apart I should do the swap.

Installed mine last Sunday. My throttle bodies had been cleaned about 5k miles ago, so I did not need to remove the coolant hoses. I just loosened the four bolts and moved them out of the way. I am getting a tune from Z1 to maximize my mods. Until then, I really noticed a difference in the drive with the plenum install. Very happy with it and looking forward to the tune!

When you say you noticed the difference with the drive can you be more specific please of the difference VS when you have the OE manifold. Been trying to consider this if its worth the money to gain some minuet hp or torque. Thanks
