Forced Induction - what gap and spark plugs?

Haha......wake up luke,

Maybe thats whats happening to your 60 footers as well,half asleep?

That's how I roll

Half asleep and love'n it :)

Yeah,put a voltmeter across your map terminals at the ecu(put it on peak hold if its got that), go out hit full boost,see if its reading >5V.If so your pushing outside the boundaries of the stock map.

Its commonly known fact as well,that u know your pushing its boundaries anyway at 11 psi

Ok cool

Yeah I know 11psi so much for the stock sensor but I've been hit'n hard to 6 months now without this problem :o


Sorry for the spam

Na I'm not have any missfire that I know off.

I am having a weird problem where my car just stops mid run... then goes back to normal afterwards

I thinks its just the stock map sensor as my boost creeps off 11psi maybe?

Seriously man, do u listen. Do u know what a colder plug does?

Your car is heating up at the strip, the plugs are going out of there heat range and bang, u are loosing spark. It feels like a rev limiter. You cool the engine back down again, they come back into the heat range, and bam, you got spark again.

*smacks head*

I have NEVER EVER heard of a OEM pump going. My stock pump flowed just as good as it ever did, 15years old. But hey, its your choice to throw money away.

Once a stock map sensor reads over 10.8psi, it does nothing more then stop increasing its voltage. It hits the roof.

The emanage hasnt got a boost cut set, i'll bet my two left testis on it. Toda, care to input?

Thats what I really meant. Not boost cut as such, but outside the stock map sensor range.

So that would not stop the car them?

What does it do? Are you accelerating and then sudenly everything cuts out silent? You back off and things start running again? If so your maxing out the map sensor.

A colder plug just conducts heat away quicker from the tip than a hotter plug. The heat range does not specify the operating temperature range of a spark plug.
