24psi. What gap for plugs?

I just put in BPR8ES gapped to 0.23. car runs like crap, idle sucks and I got the P0300 codefor the first time . What gap should i use? Manual says 0.24 - 0.27. any ideas since the high boost levels? yes I tried to search

not kaboom on the stock turbo....kaboom with a stock bottom end

i just gapped my plugs NGK BR7ES at .026-0.028 approximately and I have no problems


how much horsepower are you running, because Al uses the plugs you just installed on his car and his car is running 667awhp
