They didn't last cuz of the gapping. What gap did you have it at? You should try a narrower gap.. even though the wider the better.. most people dont have a good ignition setup to run a wide gap.

Try gapping it at 30. .44 is way too big IMO

he can get away with it because he has a good ignition setup. He says he has a full MSD setup, so my understanding is he's got a more powerful spark from some type of MSD amplifier.. therefore he can run a larger gap.

I run denso iridiums on the street and Beru Racing conatant electrode at the track ( they foul to easy on the street) I only run one or max two stages colder as I would rather melt a plug than a piston!

which denso iridiums and what gap could I run in my 95 turbo gsr? Will that be better than the colder copper plugs?

not sure which, their numbers are all snafu like 42 or 45, I think I asked for an 8 for the street, they are pregapped and I dont suggest chaging it as you may break the electrode. all i know is that at 12 psi the densos made 8hp over the zex i was trying out.

BKR7E's
Yep, that's what I used to use too.

Those and the series 8's and 9's if I wanted to go higher boost levels.

Hey does anyone know the difference between the BKR7E's and the BCPR7E's??

Yes I know what each letter represents.. but has anyone tried both and felt/seen any difference? All I know is that you're not supposed to mis-match them.

the difference is the BKR's have a V groove and the BCPR's are flat. some say the BCP's put out a bigger spark compared to the BKR's.

BKR6E, gapped to .30.
The 6's are 1 heat range colder than stock.
I think the 7's foul too easily for street cars.

Which company makes these "BKR's".....I am installing my turbo in a few weeks here and I dont want to blow anything. So I figure I should get some of these since it seems the rest of you use them

Wait a minute. How many psi are you guys pushing? If your pushing:

over 14 psi on your motor use NGK part# 5820(NGK Race Plugs R5671A-10).
If your using 7-10 psi use NGK Part# 5238 (NGK Race Plugs R5671A-9)

These are great plugs plus they ar cheap! (couple of bucks)

BCPR7E-11's @10psi, does the job

Question: what gap do you guys reccomend for these plugs as this much boost ona stock ignition setup w/ 3 degrees retard in the ignition?
