i'm going to some 7's and i am gonna keep off the limiter haha.

Keeping it off the limiter is a good idea. I run the V Power 5671a-9 plugs for spray and the 8s for around town.

Paul you got something really off somewhere, either tune, jetting or something. I would get everything checked out before you need a another motor.

i bounced off the rev limiter multiple times on these plugs, you don't think that alone would do it?

1iron 12-18-2008 11:46 PM

Does your limiter cut fuel or spark?

yeah, it is the stock one.

i know exactly what your problem is-
did you say you were running 7's? NGK i suppose? WAY TO HOT of a plug for your application. I would run 9's if you are going to be shooting the car. They may need changing more frequently after alot of normal driving, but they won't burn up your motor.
Either way- 7's and nitrous don't mix.

they are tr6's right now, i was gonna go one step colder. its only on a 180 (couldn't find bigger pills) wet shot right now.

minytrker 12-19-2008 10:21 AM

Going on the limiter could have done that, Im guessing. I have never went on the limter on nitrous. I have seen way to many intakes get blown off when that happens. What ever reason your going on the limiter you need to get it fixed, all it takes is one backfire and your car could get burned to the ground.
I hate TR6's, they good for really small shots but I wouldnt want to run them on anything over 150 shot and even then I really dont use use them that much.

WWhittle 12-19-2008 02:41 PM

a TR6 is also an extended tip plug- not good for nitrous. NGK makes the same plug in a "BR" version, but it is not an extended tip. You probably need to try a BR7 or 8.
i actually thought you had more gas than that on it. that must only be one stage.

yeah, i'm stupid is the main reason for limiter. also what plugs are the step colder from tr6's?


i've been lucky so far for how many times i have seen limiter on the kit.

i believe that the BR6 is a little colder than the TR6. It is not an extended tip, so you should be running them anyway. You could try BR7's but they may tend to foul out more with daily driving.

Yea, Wes you are right. Typically a non-extended plug is colder by design. I am not familiar with NGK plugs, like Jeff posted I run Autolites. Their AR series is a pretty good plug. The AR3911 is a non-extended plug, non-extended helps stop predetenation, that is typical in nitrous vehicles. Those old plugs looked oily, like there was a little valve float, when you hit the box...:bigthumb:
