Missfire
Hey Guys,
Over the weekend i changed my plugs from stock because i was getting a slight missfire every so often, maybe 1 in every 10-12 pulls
So i got BPR8ES and gapped them to 0.6mm (0.024) and it seems to be worse the it was with the stock plugs in the car
I done some reading to maybe gap them to 0.45-0.5mm (0.018-0.020)
What do you think, its only doing it slightly at the moment on Full Boost WOT

26psi around 360whp
I seen somewhere but cannot find it there was someone selling 4 ignition coil setup for stock ECU i cant remember the vendor but it was pretty cheap i really want to know what its called or a link because if thats my issue then it needs to be done
Just saying though its been running that boost and power for about a month now and it wasnt missfiring while i was tuning

Yeh i didnt think so
The plugs are gapped to 0.024 at the moment will going down that little bit help?
I was going to try gap these plugs down a little first see what happens if that fails ill go back to 7's

Ok i put my stock plugs back in the car gapped to 0.5mm (0.019-0.020)
I put my stock ones back in to go back to the stock heat range
The issue is now resolved no more missfire
