Keep those plugs. Its not going to effect your hp much if any. You dont even want to spray 100 with out them either. Who knows you might get a nice race set up to where you want to spray more and you wont be able to with out toasting your motor.

well, if u loose any HP it'll only be a few rwhp BUT I swear up and down my MPG went up when I switched to TR55 gapped at .50. I was getting around 230-250 city.highway out of a tank. Right after I switched to TR55 I went and filled up...not knowing my gas milage was gonna change and after about 2 tanks I noticed my MPG was about 260-300 city/highway! Now, I spend about half and half on city streets and highway. I haven't taken a long trip to see what my highway MPG is but with the TR6 plugs it was about 29MPG.

I swear, this is true. I have done nothing else to my car and I have NOT changed my driving habbits what-so-ever. I've heard of this happening before but some say it doesn't change much...bullshit.

go ahead and change them out for better MPG. NGKs are cheap, gas isn't.

Gas milage is affected, take them out. Put a hotter plug back in. I did lose gas milage.
