Default Just pulled my plugs, check them out please.










I know white means lean but I searched and said white is ok to an extent. Just want to make sure...they are NGK BKR6E-11. It's a GSR with intake and BLOX IM, with a chipped ECU from Phearable, anddd open header with no o2 sensors...is that the problem? Still waiting for exhaust to arrive, won't come till next week...

You see the part that black...usually when its white around there then thats when your car is running lean. my last gsr i had my o2 sensor/spark plugs were all white before i crashed it. But to me it does seem like its running normal.

If having no o2 would change what the plugs would like it, it would more likely be rich.

How old are they, they look pretty new

The electrode looks good!

Running open header can cause some fuel problems (as running lean) or could be the chipped ecu, but like I said the electrode looks alright!

It's only a week or 2 old. I guess I'm good.

Just finished the swap so I just wanted to see if everything was good.

They look ok. No signs of glazing or the "porcelain" look that signifies detonation.

Haha, why that face? They seem ok. Are you just doing the compression test to make sure swap is ok? What did you do, swap motors as a whole, or internals?
