Spark Plug Recommendations?
Just had my plugs foul on me so its time to change them. I was just wondering what others have had luck with. Also, what kind of gap setting. Let me know.
Thanks
Thanks

Nope, did not say that at all. I need to be tuned really bad, runnin way rich. I just replaced them less than a month ago. I was just wondering if anyone was using anything else.

Denso Iridium IW's... I use a 31 which is like 2 steps colder than stock I think.
They are like $20 a plug though. But I've never fouled them and never had an issue with them. Even at 41 psi on stock coils.

NGK BPR8ES
You need to experiment with the gap setting, I usually go anywhere from .23-.3
you got to take this into consideration
Copper NGK will do the best job, but wont last long
They are cheap anyway
I always keep a spare group of 4 in my toolbox, and change them AT least once a month

I have done extensive testing and have always found the NGK Iridium IX plugs to be the best plug on the market for any boosted engine. This is coming from many many years of dyno tuning.
NGK Iridium IX BR8EIX(or BPR8EIX if you'd rather a protruding electrode) gap them at .028. If you get misfires, then gap them down 1/.001 at a time until you dont have misfires.
Plus, NGK has a two year replacement on these plugs.

i wouldnt argue with these plugs! if you dont want to go the copper option, this would be the way to go
