Just curious what kind of plugs all you turboed people running 5-8 psi were using. I was told today to use a hotter plug for turbo. I thought we were supposed to use cold plugs? Or how about regular plugs gapped smaller? Any input is appreciated as I am pretty confused now. Thanks!

Yeah, I was reading a post and it said BRK7e-11 or something like that..so that's what I'll probably go for? Now my other question is, what do you gap them to? .035 - .030?

Actually Ive read hotter plugs for our cars. ngk5e-11 gapped to .050 Thats what I installed and everything seems to be working ok.

The 5E's are for those of us still scraping pennies towards getting a turbo.....

Yep. 5E for non-turbo and 7E for turbo

bigger the gap, the more power you can create, but the more of a chance you have of having detonation, is that right? sounds good
