(UPDATE) Cylinder 1 and 4 Misfiring (UPDATE)

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know, I picked up some new spark plugs today and did my first ever vehicular DIY. Changed the spark plugs. O'Reiley's ended up giving me the wrong type but Autozone came in clutch and hooked it up. A few hours later (I said it was my first mechanical thing ever right?) CEL is gone! The plugs themselves were terrible looking. Almost solid black all the way down and a little burning coming out the top but with some new ones in, car's running great and I can move on to other things with it. Thanks for the help and a massive thanks to Jeff Smith for his write up and video showing just how easy it was to replace the plugs.

Yes no fitment issue on the intercooler besides the front lower crash bar or bumper support needs to be filed down slightly or bent in as i did to not be pushing agains the intercooler. I highly recommend installing it when you have the core support off as getting it through and getting pipes on is a bit of work.
