Well I took Pornstar and Dub's advice and switched to NKG brk7's gapped at .030. I just put them in today and going now to a colder plug with a .015 smaller gap, it seems like the car accelerates and drives much smoother but it seems like the car doesn't accelerate as quick anymore. It just doesn't feel as sprinty as it did. The car had denso plugs with a .045 gap that were 1 heat range colder, but the motor sat for a year and a half before I put it in, so I wanted to change the plugs anyways. I'm not sure if I'm just nuts or did it really affect the ride that much?
