tim, sorry been busy at work. got my required work done. plugs havent been changed in a little while, so this is the normal time about when I change them.

if i remember correctly i think i gapped them at .024 last time. the misfire is not just occasional, its horrible. anything close to full boost over 5k just sputters and spits. SES light on non stop for mult cyl misfires.

im still on stock turbo and pretty close to stock otherwise, thats why i wanted to see what yall are running. im going to stick with ngk iridiums for sure, sounds like the 7s are better than the 8s from what you guys are saying?

Rick, did my dad ever get in touch with you? i havent talked to him in a bit but he was supposed to give you a shout....

Rick, ACT stuff is on sale at your place with coupon code? I know a guy looking to get an ACT clutch.

Nevermind I figured it out. It's a nice 25% discount!

Not gonna happen. Clutch needs to last 1 more month.

I would argue my car is full of Nguyen. 3 Seasons of autox, 8 track days (so far), and 75k on the original OE clutch sounds pretty damn good to me.



FWIW, I've gotten both my right side wheels off the ground in turn 1 at Lightning. Just sayin'.
