I wouldn't assume the plugs to be the issue. That isn't an area that places particularly high demand on the ignition system. You can try swapping your factory ignition just to rule out a coil problem, but what you're experiencing can be caused by a variety of things, such as tuning, pressure leaks, etc.

My problem is back. Back to the plugs. BR7ES or BPR7ES?

Problem solved! Switched back to factory coils just like you said. Issue was the aftermarket coil over plug setup had fouled because of excessive moisture. Im sayen ever denso coil spring that comes in contact with the top of my plugs was BLACK and covered so bad I dont know how it even ran. Thanks for help Ted B

I'm happy to say it Ted. I was skeptical but you were right. Only problem is the O'Reilly store I buy parts from doesn't normally stock the BPR7ES but they do have the non-protruding plug version. How would those fair? They said they have to order the R's directly from the manufacturer and they took 3 days to arrive.

Nope, you want the protuded tip plug (BPR7ES). Do not get anything else. Go to the closest Advance Auto to you. They stock it. Just ask for NGK part no. 5534. That's all the info they need. You'll be in and out of there in <5 min.
