I'm off from the 15th to the 4th Our baby is due on the 18th so I saved up some days.

 

ya'll suck. I've got a whole 1/2 of a vacation day left between now and the end of the year which I can't even use because we are so busy with EOY stuff.

 

I could be off from the 17th - 4th 2010 but I plan on taking long weekends instead of taking it all at once. Best wishes for the upcoming birth.

That sucks brotha!

I was stuck working while you were out racing all year so I don't feel that bad for you.

 

Man, mondays suck.

How was everyone's thanksgiving?

 

Including TTO time, I've got 15 days to waste for the rest of this year! Holla. On another topic, my plugs are already bad. Damn these copper plugs go bad so quick.

 

that is fast, I've been running the same NGK br7es plugs for over a year now... but I don't drive as hard as you chu

 

like which ones?

do you guys have to take all your vacation time by the end of the year?

 

You like those BR7ES Marc? I read some bad reviews about them fouling alot. I'm running BPR7ES, gapped at .28 (OEM), and they're burned out at 4k. I guess thats about right. Wodneirng if I should even go a step colder to 8ES

 

NGK br7es have worked well for me. .028 seems like a narrow gap, you want to run the widest gap possible, with your COP I would guess you can get away with something in the .03x range. I have to check my log book, but I think I'm running around a .032-.034 on my OEM ignition... could be way off as its been a while since I touched them.

About the BPR7ES plugs, I was always told to avoid the NGK P plugs, P = protruding tip, which in alot of cases is the cause for pre-ignition.

 

Hmm, thats the same thing the guy who made the coils told me after I installed the spark plugs. I'll try them next time.

BTW, today to MAPerformance's CYber Monday sale. 20% off everything guys!

 

That sucks. Thats why I like the iridiums. I knwo you can't really gap them but atleas you don't have to change them out every 3k.

Pic one... there's a bunch of silly stuff like "car", "tom", "meets", "meet", "date", "import"...
Also, I can carry 5 days which I'm doing already.

I would try to run .030" for sure with that extra ignition power. Don't know about going colder though.

You said protruding tip...

 

I thought it was 20% off what was listed in their black friday sale?

"We kick off the weekend with a 5% discount on Black Friday that increases each day until Cyber Monday at which time you will receive an unbelievable 20% discount! What's the catch? Sale pricing applies only to products within the Black Friday 2009 category and limited quantities are available which will be sold on a first come first served basis."

Maybe, and i hope, i read it wrong?

 

Eh, you're right Chip. I didn't read the post clearly...or fully. Damn, I wanted some engine mounts too!

Pete, I do like the OEM Iridiums alot, but I was told to move to coppers with my mods and power level, so that what I did. I dont mind changing the plugs at all, so its ok.

I'm in the market for an Evo 9 throttle body, anyone see one, let em know. THanks

 

Whats the difference between and VIII and a IX TB?

Also, what offset are your wheels Chu, are they the +18? Do you have to run a spacer with the +18?

 

the IX TB comes with a grill! jk jk
