Default help with plug selection bkr7e-11 ?

ok guys doing some tuning here on my GSR manley rods ross racing pistons crower allmotor cams,Holset H1E, its been going pretty well.

Yesterday i was trying to get the 1000s right and ended up fowling out a set of r5671a-8's.

im starting to think they were too cold in the first place. i picked up a set of bkr7e-11 today and got some real tuning done. its in the mid 10s WOT around 20 PSI 8.2 compression GSR stock sleev 81.5

the goal of this build is 500 on 93 octane hints the super low compression. IS it safe with this setup im running now? it pulls HARD with no det sounds or hiccups. timing is in the 14* mark in higher boost regions. trying to be safe here. on the right track?


if anyone would like to take a look at my crome bin file i would be extremely gradafide [is that even a word lol] just shoot me ur email add and ill send it along

yea i wouldn't run any less than 8's for that kind of power. If they are fouling so quick then you are too rich at idle. Maybe try tuning idle with some hotter plugs if you are having trouble with it.

I have it idling MUCH better now its alil lean 16s but i can deal with it.

ordered some 8s at my local murrys tossing them in tomorrow and hitting track friday and dyno saturday if it stays together lol. the turbo is holset H1E its bigger than the HX35 and abit smaller than the HX40,actually predasesor of the HX40 flows aorund 60lb min maybe more. not much info on thees guys. im going to boost as much as my wastegate lets me. HKS 50mm dont know what spring is in it but i hit boost cut at at 17 psi so its either 18 or 22 [largest hks makes] running on pump gas. well see what happens.

What's your timing at idle? What exhaust manifold and cam setup do you have? Curious as you said you're going for 500whp on pump gas (93 I assume). I would buy two sets of 8's. One so you can get a fresh read on the plugs. And keep a set of 9's so you dont kick yourself on the dyno

Stock bore? What's you using to tune with? Advance the timing to 16* at the idle load/break points and try using another rpm break point with the ignition advanced a more. It's not going to hurt anything. They like what they like. 4G63's I have to advance the idle quite a bit when/if it drops using an idle ignition offset table.
