plugs?


what would you say is the best plug to run with a screamin demon coil? also have any of you tried the accel coil pack. does that one even fit, it looks like they come in a 4 bolt design... but we need a 3 bolt right?

so i guess i am looking for the optimal ignition set up. i need to replace my spark plugs, so i figure why not just upgrade to a better coil, wires, and plugs at the same time.

is it even worth it to do this, or should i just replace my stock plugs?

there isent gana be a big diference if ur car is near stock. it will somth out ur accel a little. espeshaly if u have bad plugs and wires

from what i have heard the accel pac is better then the screaon deamon, for plug wires i would say MSD super conducters, and plugs just outo light in stock heat rang and apropried gap.

765 the STOCK v6 plugs
autolite
copper!
and a .065 gap if the idle is to choppy try a .060 or just do .060 anyway
.054 will have a bad start off the line at low rpms

but if your going to do an aftermarket coil pack and wires then you need to have the matching plugs or then it is in fact worthless... if you have the correct gap then you can at least claim that its set up for improvement

I never said anything about aftermarket plus and wires.

I said

"stock plugs
stock gap"

I didn't say
"new high performance coil pack!!!!!!!! new 8.5mm super conductor wires!!!!!!!
stock plugs
stock gap"

But yeah I can see this conversation: Jimmy "yeah man just put some stickers on the type S, yeah the toyota" Jonny:"aint got nothin on the se-R just put a new 105mm tip on that bad boy what about you?" You "eh, just got some performance wires and coil on the stang, its set up for improvment" .....

Im running 9mm Ford Racing wires. Autolite coppers #764 (GT Plug one step colder) with a .065 gap on a stock coil and i have never had it run better. Fuel millage is better idle is better and no more random miss.

Its running great. i think its fine, and my old plugs which were the correct heat range had High speed glazing, hence all my running issues. because of my driving habits a colder plug was recommended to me to prevent future glazing on the new plugs.
