The gash was cause by this little ******...im going to put something around it this time when I install the charge piping.

I made a thread a while back about possible hydrolock, which would seem about right now, but no... The seals on the ren of the plug wires was broken, and it was letting in water to the dist cap, cuasing a short, and a misfire in one of my cylinders...*******!

My CAI on my 96 civic gets cut on that damn thing too. Luckily I noticed it after like a week and it had only gone through the paint and not the pipe yet. I just wrapped a shop rag around the part of the CAI and its been fine since. Are those nice wires and how much did they cost? I might hafta run down to Summit and buy me a set, I've been lookin for some nice ones. ---- looks nice mang, make sure to post up a finished product.
