Where to buy race plugs??
Goodfella thats good news.....I have abotu 4000miles on my 7420's 9 leading and 11 trailing... The car runs great but stumbles around 1500 rpm in low rev gear changes. I'll go 10 L and 10.5 T after this set burns out to correct this...
Gonna ressurect this...anyone know where I can get a milled down socket for the B10EGV's? From the looks of it there would be no material at all left on the socket...the plug is pretty damn snug in there. Anyone have any ideas?
I ordered my Greddy race plugs from rhdjapan when I did a group buy locally. I still have a box of around 12 plugs that i got for extra spares for me. Got them for around $30 /plug.
Anyway, my first set of 9/10 ran for ~25,000 km last year and when I pulled them out they still looked fine except the rear leading had ~1mm of wear on the part that extends out. The rest of the plugs still looked like new after I glass blasted them and I kept them as spares (although I'll probably never use them).
Current set has gone for about 16,000 km and I still have no reason to change them. When I'm ready to go 23+ PSi, I'm going to put new 10/11's in.

i am running the B10egv's and i love them and having no resistor in them uses the full power of the ignition system i made over 500 on these plugs with no ignition amp and running 1000cc's of water injection. car starts great everytime but yes u do have to get a thin walled socket to install them
If anyone has trouble finding the R7420's on www.sparkplugs.com make sure you search with specific heat range... R7420-9 or R7420-10 or R7420-105 or R7420-11 $33.82/each

. Reasonable price too.thewird
Ok best overall deal I found on the R7420's was from www.clubplug.net ... also $33.82/ea AND you get free shipping if your order is over $150... so I also bought a set of stock 9's for the heck of it. Also, cool thing is they give you a 5% discount on your next order if you refer a friend, but the coupon expires in 20 days.
M&W says, "Where possible use non resistor spark plugs to reduce energy loss."
If you run a non-resistor plug and have interference issues, you'll obviously need to switch to a resistor type plug. The question is then, why risk potential engine damage from interference to gain a small amount of added spark?

No doubt Lugwig... I have both sets of plugs and just wanted to know if running a M&W would the cancel out the issues of running a resistor/no resistor plug.
Thanks though, I'll stick to the resistor type for the M&W.

i just ordered the 7420 10s. My question is should I run them in all 4 holes or just the bottom two? and the regular 9s up top? I have 383whp 11.2 afr with a hks twin power. I am getting the car ready for a track event on the 14th.
