To test for false KR just throw some Torco, or some unleaded race gas and see if any of the KR goes away.

How are you guys not running LT1 mafs !!!
Yes it is the LT1 maf that cam with the kit. How do I use my tuner to Adjust my knock sensors? Bad Idea? I hear there to sensitive.

What should I gap these to? there the Autolite 103 race plugs. Maybe that why my car ideals like **** after the turbo install

Oh if I had to guess I would think there around .030 now. I wonder if that could give a ruff ideal and KR

Why run such a small gap ? Our ignition system is pretty powerful from the factory.

I run a .060 gap under 12psi on NGK TR6's. Never blown out spark !

I gapped them to .050 they where at .030. I only did the front three I will do the rest in the morning. I hope it helps. So buddie has some 1.9's should I pick them up? Do they help the turbo setups? I would like to see low 12's from my car. I have my mods in my sig, But I think I should get at least water meth.

1.9's and slicks w/ meth and a really good tune you can probably snatch high 11's on a good track.

The smaller gaps prevent higher rpm misfires. I think most people on turbo setups are running between .38-.45. I have mine gapped at like .3 or something way to small and it misses at idle alot.

I think around 15psi people outflow the lt1 mafs also so they needs scaled so why not stick with the stock maf. I believe all of zzp's kits use stock maf as well as the ttgt is still on a scaled stock maf or was for the previous setup.

Is your car intercooled? With 1.9's a good tune and some sticky tires low 12's is in reach. 1.9's work very well on turbo setups. The more air you can flow the better.
