Noooo not at all, my brothers 2012 3.7l V6 mustang has a hard time hitting XXX and he has a 6spd, aluminum 1 piece driveshaft and more lol. So me hitting the XXX range is amazing to me. But once i get the engine straight, i want to burry the needle and his mustang <3 lol

Okay so I pulled the coil pack the other day and noticed there is a crack in it. Not a big large one but I small one, but its still a crack. I wonder if this could be causing my miss and other problems?

Yes, this very well could be your problem. Replace your coil pack and possibly wires if need be, and that should fix your problem.

Yeah, at least its something simple, and not some ECU issue. Hope it all works out and im in the same boat, i have to wait for my brakes to come in, cause i needed new rotors and pads, so i figured id splurge a little and upgrade them while im at it.

Okay so I got my coil pack, installed it, major improvement for sure. Still has the light and runs a bit rough still. Gonna say it needs an alternator still. But it does run a lot nicer though!
