What all can be done without requiring ECU modification? I'm not against chipping the ECU, and I'm capable of it, but actually tuning it scares me a little and I can't afford to pay someone else to do it. Maybe down the road, but I don't want to start a "domino effect" of mods just so my car is still drivable.
Edit: The valve cover, oddly enough, is clean all around. I know what you mean about the valve cover, and it's the first thing I looked at. It's definately coming from the head gasket, on the front passenger side corner of the head. Luckily no coolant in the oil as far as I can tell, and the only smoke I get is from oil burning off the block. No overheating either, and the oil that has leaked out is fresh and brown... no baked on black nastiness.
