morning everyone, have a good one
Are you running them out of the box or did you re-gap them? Are you running OE wires? I was running magnacore (sp) and would get a slight misfire, I switced back to oe and misfire went away. If I remember, for a VIII gap should be at .022-.024". If it is more then that you could be experiencing the spark blowing out. Did you get your 60K done yet?

Pete, you should run the November event with Chu at thunderbolt. I hear it's going to be better than the October 20-21 event by far!

Probably not, as he decided picking up another gun was necessary for his protection in the hood that is Virginia! Also, in case zombies attack!

Eh. Go away for a measily 3 weeks, 2 of which were spent messed up from a car accident and you come back to somebody complaining. Granted, I'd be upset if my turbo took a **** too but people are just over the top these days.

Oh well, how is everyone doing in here!

Speaking of which. All ACT stuff is on sale. Use the coupon code ACT2011 and you save a CRAPLOAD.
