Size:  84.8 KBI just hit 100,000 miles and couldn't be more excited. This car is amazing!!! I know that I can get another 150,000 on this engine. Except for a bad EVAP vent solenoid that didn't affect the performance of the car, I haven't had any problems.

Awesome and congrats! Question for ya... did ya have any intake valve cleaning done? I bought mine on memorial day amd ive done about 23,000 miles in 6 months... currently sitting around 55k, was wondering does there need to be a periodic cleaning?
