BKR7E's were what I was running in the Mirage.. .12 psi wastegated boost, 28 psi max boost.

I still have some on me right now, if you want to buy them off of me. I can meet you at Titan or something. PM me if you are interested.

You're welcome but watch out! 2 steps colder might not be that bad if you boosting. I'm probably going to give it a try with high compression.

Ive been running with one step colder (a 6 plug). Im putting a set of BKR6EIX plugs in. There irduims. These plugs have a smaller gap than the stock ones. Ours techs here were exampling to me how on turbo application they need a smaller gap and n/a applications need a larger one. What r u setting ur gaps to??

Ive also heard a rumor that 2 steps colder may be to hard on our coil packs but idk. Doesnt seem like ppl r having problems.

I would if i was running more than 7psi. I just put some 6's in tonight. Im going to run them a couple of days and check them. RRMs kit is running around 200hp and higher boost. Usually u drop a heat range ever additional 75hp. Well see if there is detenation on the plugs then ill change them! Thx!

**Gregivg what kind of setup do u have?

The gap I was using on the 1.8 1/2L was 0.25 - 0.30 .... usually about 0.28....

Thus far, I didnt have any coil pack problems whatsoever....

Naw man, I dont hang out with the locals at UC7 or wherever. I kinda just stick to myself .... hit the track sometimes with Wadadlig_Oz in the RA and jsut lay low.
