Trifecta and IPF both suggest a gap of 032. Tomorrow is also Friday Derrick, any dyno time?

oe is set at

Note: The spark plug comes pre-gapped. Do not change the spark plug gap from 1.01 mm (0.040 in).
  1. Inspect each spark plug gap. Adjust each plug as needed.
Mine have always been here

Yeah that's correct. You will need a tune tweak after gapping at 032. Surprised ipf didn't make sure you were gapped accordingly. You should see better everything on the car when this happens. Ok now no more thread jacking lmao.

I snuck it on the dyno to play with the fuel system today. We have boost, almost maxxing the turbos, and we have fuel. We also have some killer numbers.

Nice. On pump gas, too.

If that won't get it in the 10s then I blame the driver.

Sounds good. That'll give them time to dry off after a week of rain.
