Default Spark Plug Gapping

Just curious is it necessary to change the gap on the spark plug once I install my turbo setup? Or it be ok to run it at the stock requirements?

Is this assuming a higher output ignition system?

I think it really depends on your turbo setup and HP goals. I would ask your tuner what they recommend. Every setup is different.

Yup, nothing is wrong with running a series 8 plug or even a 9 if you needed it...
