I am currently running my iridiums at .025 gap in a S/C'd B18C1 running 6lbs of boost. Should I increase my sparkplug gap to .035 to .038? Anyone running iridium plugs in this setup or something similiar?

I gap plugs for forced induction at .030 and go tighter from there if need be.

I ran bkr7e's and I gapped them at 35 when I had my JR charger. They ran great!

So should I re-gap my plugs to .035 or higher?

SuperTeg95

Which plugs are you using? When you gap them larger, you will have to replace them more often, but what is a 6$ tune up every oil change...It's no big deal ya know. If you aren't running the bkr7e's then I would reccomend trying them.

I am running Denso Iridiums..

Thats right I'm sorry. You already have that posted. I havent' heard too many good things about those plugs. Honestly I would just stick with NGK bkr7e's. I've heard of alot of people saying those aren't that good for FI.

That plug would have to be a bit colder right? instead of a 7, a 9 maybe?

SuperTeg95

Why a 9. 7 is fine.

why spend more money on minimal HP (denso) Id rather replace my NGK more often.

fresh tastes better.

I guess just new plugs more often instead of iridiums?

Go with standard NGK's, gapped to .030" and heat range 6 would be sufficient.

get rid of those iridiums, they run too hot.

Doesn't matter. You should use a colder reg copper plug.

Do you know anything about spark plugs? You said iridium plugs run too hot. That statement isn't true. I never recommended iridium plugs for this application, just stating that they come in different heat ranges. The IK22 is the equivalent of a 7 heat range in ngk.
