Evo..What plugs are you running? - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

I just picked up about 85hp and need to know if I should go a step colder using the old rule of 100hp=1 step colder plugs? I have heard yes and no, either way what are you running and what gap?

I think you should get a one step colder plug. The copper NGK's are good, but you have to replace them at almost every oil change. I use Denso iridiums. Alot of guys don't like them because they think they come pre-gapped and when they install them their idle is rough. I gapped mine at 24 and they work perfect.

I'd recommend going a step colder. I'm running NGK Iridium plugs gapped at 24 also.

BPR7ES gapped at .027. Work the gap smaller if you need too.

Ok I am going to go with one step colder NGK's than stock. anyone know the part # for them and a good source?

BPRs don't work in the IX.

Definitely go one step colder Nick. Get the NGK Iridiums. I have the P/N at the shop...

evomike · 11-29-2007, 10:52 PM

I run br8es but I run way more boost and hp then most evos on here, but they always treated me good.
