Since you have no airbox, I would guess its the ICM. I say that because the ICM is supposed to sit on top of a heat sink that is part of/on top of the stock air box for proper cooling. Remember that?

Yep I know. I'll visit advanceauto parts today see if they have. I read in another post sayin advance has it for $171 with lifetime warranty.If I cannot find it, then I'll buy Hugo from ECS.

Actually, its $188 from advance i believe..I bought one for $80 new off ebay (yes.. ebay) and it fixed my misfire.. Mine was only on cylinder 2 though. Good luck.

Since it comes with lifetime warrany, I'll get it from Advance because my ICM is not in the air box, it's easy to damage.

Mine is also on top of the airbox. Didn't have the funds to pick up the one from advance though. Hope you get back on the road soon!

Advance did not have it so I bought it online. Well, I'll recieve it tomorrow. Hopefully it will fix the problem.

Otherwise I'll put my car on ebay starting at $1 no reserve [:-]
