are you sure that you are using the right plugs in the car?(some heads use a longer plug and sometimes people just through the stock length plugs back in) when i bought my car i didnt touch the plugs and when i got it to the dyno i found out the car had the wrong plugs in it and we swapped out the plugs there and it was like a totally different car after that. my tuner told me that guys make that mistake with GT40X heads all the time, dont know if thats true with ur heads but i figured id add my .2 cents
