Do you guys regap your spark plugs?

[aznguy1992]

I saw an issue that is caused by injectors or spark plugs misfiring at high boost. But do you guys gap down your spark plugs or keep it at stock gap level? I’ve had this issue maybe 4 times while high boost in the past year in a half. I have replaced the injectors back in november of 2021. Seeing to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Your car is stock or tuned?

Stock. I will never tune a car
If the car need to be tuned, this car is not for me.

What boost level are you running?

I gapped mine down quite a bit once I upgraded the turbo. It all depends on how much boost you're running.

Oh yeah if it is stock you won’t need to do anything besides basic maintenance.

What boost level are you running?

I’m on tsp stage 2. It’s around 27-28. But this first happened on tsp stage one plus.

Where did you gap yours to? I saw from drob saying 0.020-0.025 should fix it.

The other ones are just those after market? I don’t think my ignition coils are the reason for it.

I was told by an unnamed tuner that keep them stock gap until you start seeing over 28 psi of boost.
I’ll let them tell me when it’s time.

I just seen it recommended and suggested by Daniel for those who have misfires at full throttle.
