66793, plug gap for nitrous
Posted by sheldon, Mar-10-04 10:53 AM
Can someone post the plug gapping requirements for running nitrous? I'll be using the NGK bkr7's. I tried the search and couldn't find anything.

Thanks.

Holy old post post resurection that I have come up with but I found this while searching and had a similar question. What if I had the screamin demon coil pack? what should they be gapped to then? I've tried searching but cant find it. Thanks

Also, I'm an auto and thinking about getting a 50 shot, Is it ok to spray in first after 3000-3500 rpms or should I wait until second? thanks again

with a hotter coil you can run a larger gap.....i think i read that some people with that coil are running around .60 i think. start at stock and get larger. keep a notebook and log your results to find the best setup for you. When running NO2 or boost you begin to look at colder range plugs. the gap should not be changed just because you are running no2. Remeber spraying creates mor eheat so you might need a colder range when you are going to spray such as the track. To find the best setup try a few different ways going away from stock and keep a small journal of results to compare. Datalogging helps in this.

I gap mine at .32 and using autolite copper resistor plugs they seem to last alot longer than any plugs that I tried
