Hey Armando...after reading all the dyno load drama, me thinks you should check your spark plugs, just in case. Can you post up and let us know what they look like? We can do it in my garage if u wanna.

You know that's not a bad idea... I was wanting to change plugs eventually. What do you suggest I should get so we dont put the old ones back in?

You can probably go one step colder, I like the plain ol copper NGK's...

But if the plugs are fine we can re-gap and re-use, no problem you car is still NEW!!

Yay copper! I was just writing about them but my internet crapped out on me! Isnt the only drawback of copper is that you have to change them more frequently?

yup. And I'm always under the hood anyway... they give the tuner a greater knock threshold. I don't know if they have a copper plug for the Sti (haven't really checked too hard) I found this NGK - LFR7AIX #2309 <--one step colder gapped to .044

here's the FAQ on NABISCO:
