  • NGK spark plugs

    I'm getting my car inspected and while its at the shop I'm gonna have new wires and plugs installed. My car is stock except for exhaust and I might be putting an intake on in a few months. Is this the spark plug for me-
    "NGK TR55, Stock heat range, gapped at .050"? Thats copied from Thunderracing.com. Thanks for the help guys?

    ps- whats the gapped thing mean?

    NGK TR55s are great for bolt on cars.

    The gap refers to distance from the electrode to the arm (how far the spark travels).

      yup..NGKs are the BEST..the more gap you have the more power you'll get..but we're only talking like..2 horses..and it will burn hotter too..making the plug life not as long..which is why us nitrous guys gap em around .035 ..i thought the stock gap for our cars was .060? ..you have a 98 just like me too..id just double check on that..but yeah..id go with those [img]smile.gif[/img]
