NO those plugs are fine. Good enough for 400+rwhp.

Not necessarily. I'm getting some breakup at 13+ psi (345 rwhp) with 9s all around, even with the HKS TP. I do have a very safe map from Steve Kan for our 91 octane gas, but I will need to move up to 10s to clear the breakup.

Interesting... what computer are you running? I take it PFC? I was at 18 psi on pump gas on my old 60-1 just about every weekend. Many highway pulls. No break up, never detonated or anything like that. NGK 9s is what I've always ran.

Yes, PFC. You probably are tuned much leaner than me....Steve gave me a safe tune for hard track driving on 91 octane...

Possibly my coils are not 100% either, at 86k miles on them.
