Default Simple plug related question

I just ran 11.6 on motor. So, I want more. I just bought a nitrous system and I am wondering about my Iridium plugs I just put in the car not too long ago. Will they be all right on the bottle?

Forgot the brand.. But, all 8 were damn near 60 bucks. So, I would imagine the good ones.

I heard of poeple saying "no, dont re-gap the plugs cause you'll break them" but they were .065" so I carefully gapped them to ~.055".. Just FYI..

Not at $60, sounds like you have NGK Iriduims. Still need to know if they are the 55iX or 6iX? If you have the 6iX your ok, if you have the 55's I wouldnt use them.

Just called the place I bought them.. Said he had the NGk's and the AC delco brand. The NGK's added up to the ~60 amount. He said they are the 6 series. So, I guess I am good to go? Should I leave the gap at .055"?

Mike, where the hell you been hiding dude... I tried to call you after
I ran my best 11.6 (actually twice) but you no answer nor call back.. I should have hit 11.5 or 11.4 but tranny bounced from 2 - 3 a few times..

I smell 10's once I get the TA on the jug... Give me a buzz.. You know the number.

It runs the same as it did with the standard tr6s gapped at 35.

Yea I agree.

Mike, on a side note I found out today my 11.5 at BIR and the 7.30 at Grove Creek were only on about a 100 shot. second stage was not working right. So, either of you two going to rock this sat?

Umm the tr-6s are real cheap and are a safe bet instead of second guessing . I would just get some and gap them at 33-35 and you know your ready to go
