    I wouldn’t say complete paperweights but just be prepared that they could fail at any time, and if they do fail your truck may not start. I’ve never had that happen with oe coils ever. Up to you to decide if you wanna take that risk.

    I installed Ripp coil packs recently during my supercharger install. I can’t speak on benefits but I have my OE coil packs in the truck just in case because my truck pretty much only goes 6.5 hours to the Outer Banks every couple months for vacations now.

    I know it's not the same as what you posted. But this came to mind, although I think I read that the juice wasn't worth the squeeze.

    Water/Meth sprayed into the rotors cools down temps far more than any icebox, venom hoax, etc… ;)

    OFF-TOPIC Crossposting for visibility:

    Fun, work is NOT extending my team's employment. We were told last November that we would be laid off at the end of September, with a possibility of an extension. Well, no extension is being made, and our lay off date stands. Below is my LinkIn Profile. Please feel free to share it with anyone you know that is hiring. I will have to wait until my lay off date to start any new position, so that I receive my severance.

    I've been a Data Center Engineer for Pearson Education the last 5.5 years, and was a Data Center Operations Specialist for Flexential Data Centers for 6 years prior to that. I currently own Data Center Remote Hands LLC, and have business insurance through Berkshire Hathaway. I specialize in complete hardware lifecycle management. From initial installation, break-fix, and decommissioning. Managing all aspects of a Data Center cage, working closely with supporting infrastructure teams, and coordinating with vendors.

    Pearson has laid off a lot of people in the last 7 months! TBF, my team got a much longer notification than others did. Most only got 1 month notice, we got 10. So at least I have time to sort things out. And the severance is better than a lot of other companies. LOL, better than what Twitter got!

    I'm open to moving! However damn near ever single GOV data center job requires already having Secret Clearance. Something I don't have. And you have to be sponsored by an employer to even apply for secret clearance.

    Could try tenet and conifer group. Not sure how it's different but it's in the healthcare world and everything is metric driven there.

    Check for jobs with Lockheed in your area. If you find one you like, send me the req and I can send in a referral for you. Yes, you'll likely need a clearance but most only require interim before starting. Otherwise, getting a clearance only (I know, time is lost money) takes about 3 months now.
