What should I gap 'em?

[turboscrew]

I'm switching to the Autolite 103s to try to stop some detonation problems. The 103s are 1 heat range colder so what gap should they be set at? Stock gap, smaller gap or larger gap.

What exactly are your mods? Running a power adder?

Fireman what plugs are you running, and at what gap? We have the same blower setup. The steeda boost pipe looks good under the hood doesnt it ?

Thanks man. I get compliments all the time about it and it's alot better than the black plastic piece that originally came with it. I'm running NGK TR-6's gapped at .035 as directed by my tuner.

Only mods are a catback and a mac straight shot with 85mm maf. The maf is making me run lean and the car is pinging so the colder plugs are for the detonation. Worked for a friend of mine with the c&l kit. Will report after the change.

Hmm. If that doesn't work try getting a T/A to richen yourself up or get a custom tune and get yourself some more HP...

Detonation = bad
