whtpny · July 22nd, 2008, 04:59 PM

Roos85 · July 22nd, 2008, 05:04 PM

240ish

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:05 PM

i just read that thread seems most ppl are gettin around 240. im gettin lik 200 haha

zinc02GT · July 22nd, 2008, 05:08 PM

240-260 miles here...

DO your routine maitenance stuff. Air filter, spark plugs, oil change, check tire pressure, and check coolant.

Little things like that can make the world of difference when stacked up

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:10 PM

yea i just got new intake so filter def good. maybe the spark plugs

zinc02GT · July 22nd, 2008, 05:18 PM

how many miles on the car and how long has it been since the last plug change?

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:21 PM

46k and i havnt changed them i got that car at 39k

zinc02GT · July 22nd, 2008, 05:28 PM

change em out. its about for it anyway.

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:30 PM

what are good spark plugs and should i get some new wires also?

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:32 PM

and wat do the different steps mean?

zinc02GT · July 22nd, 2008, 05:35 PM

we dont have wires.

we have Coil on plug. theyre the round black things right next to the injectors. (they should be pink on your car)

NGK Tr55s. Copper core is fine. gap them to .054.

the hole is where the coil on plug is. the wire on the far right with the connector is the COP.

I believe that means for colder or hotter plugs. thats based on the gap on the plugs.

Unless your running forced induction or nitrous, you have no need for those.

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:37 PM

wat you mean gap? im lookin at the website now how about the iridium ix?

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:39 PM

im tryin to get a little performance out of them also

zinc02GT · July 22nd, 2008, 05:40 PM

no need. theyre not worth the money IMO. You just running what seems to be a mostly stock Mustang GT. Basically just like mine.

the gap is the space between the electrode and the (God I cant rememebr the name) the bar thats above the electode.

Pics.

They will.

I noticed a nice little perk when I changed mine. Trust me. Most everyone on the forums will recommend these for ya. the only other ones I can think of are autolites. theres a spark plug list in the stickies if you need more info on em

dowork · July 22nd, 2008, 05:43 PM

yea i saw that? so the g power and all the other ones are for bigger throttles nitrous, etc.?

zinc02GT · July 22nd, 2008, 05:44 PM

If theyre a step colder, then yes.
