NGK BCP7EV Gold Palladium plugs
After about 54 thousand miles of use, the Toyota Platinum plugs will RIP. Taking their place are the
NGK's Gold Palladium plugs, type BCP7EV. After two weeks of service, I
removed the plugs to check if the heat rang was hot enough, and sure enough the plug electrodes were
nice and clean signifying that 7 is a good heat range for 13 psi boost. Just look at the old factory
platinum plugs and how they were possibly too cold of a plug from the beginning.. After the
inspection, I then re-gap'ed the plugs to 0.048 inch. Since then, gas mileage has improved and
all around power is definitely noticeable by me the daily driver. I have recently ran a 1/4 mile with
my G-Tech, and I am avaraging a couple tenths of a second quicker now. But who knows. It could be due
to anything... |
