Hey matt, i was wondering what spark plugs you were using in your 12a turbo? im about to put my turbo kit on and needed to know. Thanks

Hey, I've been using B8EG plugs gapped down to .015. They are actually motorcycle race plugs, but they work good. You'll need a very thin wall plug wrench to tighten them, or you can just use vice grips. I have also used BR8EQ and the stock plugs from a TII without any problems. But Robert reccomended to not use the BR8EQ's, I think they might cause detonation a little easier than the others.



Did you get the Draw-Thru system from Logan's dad? Are you running it like that or did you change it to blow-thru?

 

I got the draw through system from Ken and I'm going to run it like that until i can afford an intercooler and a blow through setup (maybe I will go fuel injection). It'll be about 5psi and 200 hp.

 

Cool, my car is down right now. It's getting another upgrade

Street Port and stud engine(alternitave to pinning), rotaryshack apex seals
Weber 48dco-sp
Custom intake manifold
New downpipe and rear bend in exhaust
MSD 6a
Intsall IC


I'm not sure about the IC though. I might just keep it non intercooled and sell the IC. It's two stock TII IC's, one end tank cut off each and the cores welded together. I gotta decide if I want to run an IC or not soon.


It'll be ready sometime before the end of april. I have to have it done to take it to the rotary revolution.

 

You dont have any extra plugs do you? I'll buy them off you. Ive got 2 weeks to get this car running hahaha so im kind of in a jam.

 

I've got a set of worn out BR8EQ's, I gave the set of TII plugs to Nick(NLC1179) when he bought his TII. You can get the B8EG's from www.ironpony.com here in columbus. I think the BR8EQ's would be fine to use if you have them. I ran them for a while without any extra problems. I detonated the **** out of it with all 3 types of plugs until I got the carb and fuel pressure right. Then it ran fine with all 3 types.

What plugs do you have to use right now?
