BR8ES gapped as high as you can get away with, but I wouldn't expect more than .024...maybe only .022.

It's not as hot as the 7s you use. 7s are stock heat range, and 8s are one step colder. I hate to say it, but you could have easily learned this by searching. There is a newbie forum for newbie questions in the future - just trying to help.

I used BR8ES gapped to .024 with success. If you gap them a little lower you will get a little more life out of them though. But for $8 who cares :-)

They are the same but Iridium - not designed for high boost and cost a lot more but will last a lot longer, too. We use the S style, because they are copper and less than $2/pc.

IX = Iridium
8 = one range colder

We use copper for high boost typically.

BPR8ES gapped to .023" here, 29psi peak no problemo.

Unless you have an IX, just run the copper plugs and change them every 6 months or if you have some sort of incident that would foul the plugs really bad.

It HAS or HAS NOT?

Yeah, I wanted you to do that quick swap just as a cheap/easy test.
