Do you guys gap your plugs lower than the stock settings? ( ie the stock setting should be .040 bu you gapped it at .035)
Ive heard that when running FI you should shorten the gap... Is this true? and if it iswhats the reason for this? would buying an aftermarket ignition allow you to stay at stock settings?

thanks for the help..

I know in DSMs when running big boost we need to gap them down to .28 . The turbulance in the combustion chamber will be too great and wont ignite the mixture properly. An aftermarket ignition should allow you to run a bit more of a gap. Depends on the amount of NOS/Boost you are running.
