My turbo ZC missfires more with colder plugs. It does it occasionaly with the plugs the motor came with, but it does it even more with the colder ones. With the "stock" plugs it only missfires occasionally at idle, not while boosting, and I cant hear any detonation. With the colder ones I can hear about 1 missfire per second. I havent tried driving it yet. Is this normal?

Gapped to .35. Idle AFR is 14.0:1. Unsure of timing.
