Well I see a topic on just about every type of plug, but nothing is giving me the answer i am looking for.

I currently run NGK 9's all around, these are good for 420hp. I am moving up to 550hp range and I am going to need colder plugs.

I have a set of 10.5 and 11 HKS plugs.. but I plan on using these for the track only.

Needed:

-Plug that will handle 550hp range
-Plug that will work as a daily driving plug (meaning it can start cold, and idle fine until car reaches optimal temperature)
-Can't run more than $10 a peice.

Most race plugs are $25 and up. I just need a set of plugs that can do it.

Now.. I hear stories about gapped vs resistor type plugs.. etc etc. The stockers are resistor type with the electrode in the middle correct?

I am looking into the following:

NGK BR10EIX (10 heat Range, Iridium)
or
NGK B10EGV (10 heat Range, Gappable, non resistor type)

I also hear the B10EGV requires a thinner socket for installation.

Basically, from EXPERIENCE which plug would be best suited?

I'd be running 22psi with pump and methanol, daily driver. See sig for additional mods. THanks

What about a ignitionamplifier? Like the HKS earth kit? http://hksusa.com/categories/?id=1954

 

The Egv's are your best bet. sparkplugs.com carrys B11egv's also which I run and have 0 problems with. I believe crispeed and a few other real high hp guys swear by the EGV's also

www.kgparts.com carries the socket you need for like 20$

 

Check out the sig boss. I run a twin power =)

 

Will B11EGV's give me a problem on cold starts? I assume the ignition amp will help with that... and what is the gap I need to use on them?

 

i run the 10egv with no problems andi got them at auto zone

 

What kind of power are you putting down?

I'm concerned with them fouling under daily driving conditions.

I am thinking of the NGK Racing R6725 11 heat range. I hear they work alright for daily driving.

I should be putting down 500+ hp.. on a T51r KAI at 22psi with Pump and Methanol.

Trying to find the best way to go.

 

Sorry

 

R6725 10.5 heat range ran great for me on the street, with a good tune and a lean idle and cruise you should have no problems with fouling. These performed way better, and I mean way better than any other plug I tried. Cost >> $10 tho

 

To be honest i havent had any prob,

but im running 2 crane HI-6 boxes, and using the lx92 fireball coils. so my ignition could get them to fire in pretty much anything.


Daily driving= still get to go to WOT quite often , with a good tune you'll be fine

 

Cheapest I'm finding them for is $25 a peice... can you show me where you got them for $10??

Or did you simple mean COST > $10 - cause they're not cheap. I got HKS plugs, but i refuse to use those.. lol. They're too damn expensive as it is.. i guess they're about the same.

If I use R6725 11's in the Leading and BUR9EQP or whatever in the trailings.. would that be ok?

 

Anyone? gotta order these by Monday and have them ready for the tune.

 

Doesn't look like your going to beat the B11EGV's....$5.37/ea.

Have people found these to foul when street driven?

what are you supposed to gap the B11EGV's?

 

I hear people gap them at .022

 

ANybody?

 

Oh well...

2 - NGK Gold palladium
Stock Number: 5927
Part Number: B10EGV
Unit Price: $5.37
Extended Price: $10.74

Picked up a set of 10's and a set of 11's

We'll see which one works best, starting with 10's. I'm going to gap them at .022.

I am going to run the standard BUR9EQP's for trailing.

 

How will you know if they are too hot? Detonation?

Keep us posted.

No..

Kan is tuning.. if I am getting misfiring, they're not cold enough. I wouldn't expect to see misfiring until 18 psi plus... IF they weren't up to par. The 10's should be fine for 23psi. Someone told me the rule of thumb was 1 heat range per 5psi over 15. So if I am going to do 20psi, 10's should be fine... 23psi would be about 10.5 but i am using methanol... and Steve knows what he is doing. I am not sure how accurate that little 'rule' is.. but we'll see.

I have race plugs from HKS on hand just incase i need to swap those during the tune.

 

i made 463@18 on vp103 with the 10s and no issues

 

ignition setup?

 

hks twin power amp. the power should have been higher but i was still on the stock cat so there was an exhaust restriction

 

i just bought 2 10's from racingbeat for 9 bucks a piece. i plan running 2 9's & 2 10's

You got ripped off...

https://www.sparkplugs.com/results_c...R10EIX&x=0&y=0

They have them for $6.95.

Anyway, the EIX looks good.. but we'll see how the EGV's work and if all else.. i'll throw in my HKS plugs and spend $120 for a new set each month.

 

That depends if he's local. I can drive to Racing Beat and pick them up the same day. It's not very far either. Sparkplugs.com is in CA so in addition to tax there is a shipping fee.
