I've read a few places recently that keeping the coilpack cover on your SR can cause the coilpacks to overheat and fail prematurely. I've put about 10k miles on my car since the swap, all with the cover on, but all at stock boost with the stock turbo.

I'm curious whether anyone's had an issue with this, and if so, what were the circumstances - turbo upgrade, hot day, etc.

Discuss.
