Mike, I honestly think it wont hurt to just jump one range colder anyway. Are you going o Dez on Satuday to dyno? I may swing down thee since I have never been and I can do some video...

Mike, FWIW I asked Jose real quick.....he mentioned for your car to run TR6's to about 850rwhp and 1550-1575 EGT's. Above that he said switch to 5724-8's. He said if you start to experience some knock even with cool EGT's to go to the -9's which he mentioned is 3 ranges colder I believe. Read the plugs also, only way to really tell whats going on.

DrTurbo Apr 4, 2006 02:02 PM

Lol, heck his car is still running the T4 flange 88 as well. He hates every minute of it, but to keep all his accessories he's stuck with it....haha. I tried to get him to ditch the A/C and go T6, but he won't do it for now...lol.
