ok with 5 secs looking at that dont buy resistive plugs

If you have a problem u can rectify it later as long as you find  A good Electronic Teck :P

Resistive plugs may cause u to have poor ignition bud  fact

Must be why Steve said not to go for them.

having said that, it seems to be against the norm but I trust his experience.

Plus for the $17.50 they cost, who cares if I need to change them for the others.

BTW - he put me onto 6's, not 7's as most other people use...

But you need resistance plugs if the car is electronic computer managed according to the tech article.

Or have I missed something ?

Yeah go the colder plugs

Not so easy to start in the cold just pretend ur startin a carbed XD

hehe

But it helps stop pinging :P

errr 6 is hotter than 7 . NGK goes the other way to most heat range spark plugs.

You're right ken - i might go get a set of resistor ones before i put the car back on the dyno - then i can compare them to see if there is a difference whilst the car is on the rollers:uh-huh:

    • I'm guessing you mean something like this size? https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/bodyworx-bodyworx-hard-soft-sanding-block---70-x-135mm/594184.html?cgid=SCA01100303#srsltid=AfmBOoq_qZTEe3boann9BaHiB2f59dxJlosWLzCr0zm_weHgUlDX-N5f&start=6 Are they sanded completely flat?
    • Just a standard sanding block size. With the rock chipa they are quite small. I sanded them as you could feel the edges. 
    • Say you've just laid all your filler and your about to start sanding, how large is the sanding block your using?  Like a high fill primer? Technically possible but would be a nightmare. Just guessing from the photo, but they look small enough that you might get away with using a 1k spot putty. Normally you'd use something like this on pinholes but with the type of project you're working on I'd give it a go. 
    • Omg Brake pedal removal.. FML!!
    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road.
