I would think TR3 would want to tune with the colder plugs..

I have been testing 1 step colder with and without a tune and they work great either way.

Where's vid #2 dude?

So even tho ill have a bigger turbo setup itll be fine to run the ngk if tr3 doesnt tune my car for them? It wont screw up my air/fuel?

sorry I need 3k more miles till I can swap them.

correct

Don't be afraid to drop the gap close to 0.026" especially if you notice any sort of misfiring under boost. As boost goes up, WMI or E85 is used, etc. the mixture density increases. The spark could be blown out under these conditions causing misfires so if you experience this narrow the gap a little.

I dont run wmi or e85.. My turbo is gonna be pushing only 12-13 psi lol

 

[Whiteblurrvt]

What is the gap of ngk's ?

I assume this is an upgraded turbo? When running a bigger turbo you push a lot more air through the motor at a lower boost. This increased airflow and the fuel required to meet AFR targets is what increases the charge density.

So are the NGK LTR7IX-11 one step colder than our stock plugs?

I think I am going to go one step colder when I do the "stage 1" tune.

FWIW, my local NAPA had these in stock for $9.29/ea.
Don't know if I'm going to try them now or when I put on the GTX, but I wanted to grab them while they had them.

Lots of good info in this thread! Thanks for joining in Alex!!

I realize the catalyst temp is a calculated value but I am seeing a near 450° difference no-tune vs tuned (both with a catted 3"dp), on OE plugs. I will be monitoring this value with the one step colder NGKs to see if that calculated temp deviates from my observed maximum values at all.

I realize it's not a thermocouple, but I wonder how accurate it is.

 

[LOLMS3]

Its been covered already, i know, but people that have tunes, running the cooler plug would be a smart thing to do, correct?

 

[Unfitproduct]

So what has everyone been purchasing after or before a bigger turbo upgrade? Link anyone plz?
