dude ngk for a soarer are a bad idea ... you need iridium plugs man. they need 40% less power to spark and so perform so much better. i'd say that the NGKs are acting as blogs of concrete in your block and your engines not coping because of their lack of ability to perform.



I clearly must be missing something if I can consistently pull 380kW+ using standard NGK plugs.

YEah SImon... Your missing the 21rwkw to break the 400 zone !!!!

Maybe you should try some for fun some day... You will never know! Manny used to run Iridiums in his setup i thought?

Heheh, unfortunately I won't spend a single cent on the Soarer anymore. I haven't even had to put fuel into it since November last year (there is still some Ultimate in the tank, and the car boosts fine without pinging). Just trying to part with it so I can pay off my other cars.

400 zone would be fun, but I aimed for 300 and overshot the mark considerably. If I keep changing the goal, I'll never get there.

Yeah, Manny did try some iridiums and melted one of them. Not going down that route.

Yeah i was kidding...

Ive always run Iridiums... Ran records and pushed the envelope further than anyone imagines with the setup i have.. I guess they play a part in it for me:-)

Dont mean they suit everyone though.
