Didn't search good enough. Been covered millions of times. But yes 400hp, just don't think you can get that high with 10-15 year old wires and carbon fouled dizzy cap
I'm not sure... I just want to see if my ignition system is good. My tuner seems to think I need to upgrade to an aftermarket system, but you guys are saying that the stock one should be fine. I'm pushing 21 psi and making over 350 hp.
If its cutting up in boost you may have a tuning issue. May not be ignition OR fuel. .025 gap is fine. Your coil could be old and as it heats up the resistance may be going to high and causing the issue OR you could have carbon fouled cap, or old wires, or bad rotor..... research and problem solve.
Switch to some 7's your tuner just thinks that a D has inferior parts or is trying to just make a buck off you. People have double that hp number on stock ignition you will be fine just make sure everything is in proper working order and fresh...
Well i run ngk4554 and I gap them to 18 or 20 I'm on 17 psi with no issues. Tapping deff plays a good part you don't wanna start blowing out the spark then thinking it's another issue g/l.
What do you mean by cut out a hiccup or just a dead cut out as no response at all. We had a car at the shop with a dizzy problem a while back the kid changed everything and when I took the dizzy apart thing was not in the best condition.
Well, sometimes it does both. It was hitting the boost good yesterday morning, and by the end of the day it seemed to be loading up really bad and was cutting out completely and running really bad like it was blowing out the spark. So, what should I run? The 8's (4554) as single slam said or the 7's?
every time I see a Honda with turbo they have the 7's on.
And that what I run on my turbo civic and the engine is running great, but am only at 180ph no where the 350hp you are at.
Try 8 and go from there I have had no issue after the plug swap but my tuner was not aware of my mistake till he said pull the plugs and looked at them he dropped in the other ones and good ever since budget build my bud made the manifold down pipe and dump tube and I/c piping oh and the catch can tried to do everything as cheap as possible but as nice as I could lol.
Lol budget to the end even the aeromotive fuel set up including A1000 pump and sumped tank system. Well just try out the plugs till you feel comfortable the way your car runs there's a old rite up here it is hope it helps but the reason we use the 4554 is cause it works with no issues for us but not every car is the same.
