Well after finishing up the greddy turbo install I decided to switch to a one step colder plug. I gapped the plugs to .030 and tightened them hand tight, and then 1/4 of a turn, which is what I read on this site. When the car is idling, it sputters a little bit, and sometimes enough to vibrate the car. Is there anything else I should do (reset the ECU, etc...)? Thanks for any input.

 

Did the car run fine after the turbo install? Or did you do both and now it runs rough?

 

Definitely reset the ecu. And are you sure you got the plugs in the right order? That's usually a big culprit when doing tune-up type stuff.

There's an order to installing spark plugs? I'm not being an ***, I just never heard of it. If so does it only apply to colder plugs?

 

Sorry, wires. Not plugs. My bad.

 

The car ran fine from the turbo install until now. I will say, that the first time I drove the car, I had the MAF wire backwards on the blue box wiring, and the car feels like it did then. Sorta sluggish at first until it hits WOT. I will definitely reset the ECU tomorrow. Any other suggestions?

 

bump for late reply last night.
