    I'm still about 4K short, but may need to get it done early (accounting reasons).

    John Eagle Acura in Houston(who did my JRSC install) quoted me $700 for the 60K service.

    I know this is a "major service, but man that sounds like a lot of $$$!

    BTW, while I'm at it, now that some have had more time SCed, what is everyones' feeling as to which plugs should be used (platinum or copper) and if it's not too much trouble, what are the numbers for each?

    If you are happy with your state of tune, and are currently running copper, switchting over to platinum would be advantageous

    Copper is great for tuning, but I think the platinums are a better all around plug

    Don't have any part numbers for you though

    Stick with the copper, it is a much better conductor than platinum. The only real advantage to platinum is its life span vs copper.
