Default TR6 @ .035 ok at around 700whp
Im installing my new custom cam.Will be running around 8 psi on my v3si.Should be close to 700whp with setup in my sig.

I got some new tr6 from A&A in my kit that i will install.
Do i leave them at .035" ???
Or the gap need to be smaller ???

Thanks
Eric

I would start here and play with the gap. Then go to 30 see if a diff and so on. Make sure you get her into boost and WOT. Robert

TR6's on the street with .028" gap. I ran TR7's at the Texas Mile with the out-of-box .028" gap.

Ive had nothing but problems with the NGK TR6 stuff lately, Switched to the IT24 plug and cleared up idle and the entire car runs smoother.

Definitely play with the gap a bit. On my car I gained power decreasing the gap from .035 .028 I'm not running TR6 plugs though.
