^ Well I heard having too light of a flywheel will throw the misfires.

You can try contacting a local tuner and see if they can get you a protune. Maybe they can get your timing in line.

Hows the health of your motor?. The misfires started after the lightened flywheel right? My friend has this same code.

^ Yah just call your local suby tuner.

Located in Roseville good luck! I'm pretty sure they can check it out for you diagnostics and all that good stuff or find a Access port Tuner.

Call around and see what you want to do.

haha my car is to slow for a light flywheel.

^ he hasn't fixed the problem he gets a misfire at a certain temp. He's untuned but i'm pretty sure you can get a protune to get that cleaned up. To help line up the timing.
