engine and drivetrain Spark plug change...WOW! (Video Clip)

[jrhone]

Just threw a set of NGK BP6ES plugs in the car, and took it from a spin...wow...NICE. I took out a set of Bosch Super 2's that were all brown and evenly worn...internally the engine seems to be in good shape. One was a tab blistered...maybe a bit hot? The cooler plug should fix that. It revved to redline soooo easy...someone also asked how smooth the idle was in a car with a 284 cam...you can tell from this clip its pretty smooth....Did a nice little video testing out the cam on the iPhone 4...

Sounds awesome! What are you running for exhaust?

[jrhone]

Exhaust is Ireland headers and 2 magnaflow mufflers...one long one in the center and one small one in the back...its a bit too loud for me...it does sound good though...If I could have that sound at like 60% of the loudness, I'd LOVE it.

Dude my engine won't rev near that easy. What mods do you have on the internals?

[Mike87]

NGK plugs are great! I have run nothing else in my '02 or my son's E21.

284 Cam, 9.5:1 compression pistons, Weber 38, Tii Distributor, Headers, Exhaust. Its a NICE engine. Bought it from a board member....

I went from NGK BP6ES plugs to the equivelent Bosch plugs recently. At first, they were fine, but then after a while the car started running very poorly. Really shakey, as if mis-firing. Going back to the NGK plugs made it run just right again. I wish I could rev it up like you. If I did, I'd be choking on oil!

Love me some iPhone 4...

[yert315]

nice! This will be my next upgrade.

I see what you mean about the exhaust.

100% agree!

Nice!!

[MrSharky]

just wanna follow..

But.. as long as I'm here... when y'all do spark plugs, do you use the little "nibs" that you screw on the end, or just the basic screw end? I know, probably depends on wires, but does something like that matter?

Also...where do you get the NGK plugs?

[yert315]

use the "nibs" if your wires need them. Autozone sells the plugs, but last I checked they were $4.99 a pop.

I picked up a set out of spite for my exhaust today, thanks to you JR!

$8.48 @ o'riely auto parts. I'll test them

out tomorrow.

One sweet ride. Love the sound the carb makes at 0:42.

Very cool.
