Change your SPARK PLUGS, yes you the turbo car!

Getting the car ready for another race event this weekend. Hope the changes work for the best and we moved in the right direction. Doing maintenance and making changes is part of the process of making these drag cars faster and faster. Car was having a super hard time spooling up on this past Thursday, turns out I'm getting lazy now that the tune is dialed in really close as far as a/f ratio and timing. Plugs were slightly fouled and not working like they should have. Wow what a difference.

I would love to see what you could do with w a big budget ... damn if you dont fly with minimal cost

Daily driven street/racecar. Making about 900/1100 hp is a cold plug or hot plug better I'm running a cold plug as of now

We change plugs every event.
Running race gas we have one water tank for the intercooler and trans cooler, and another tank that circulates engine water no radiator. We ice them down and dump out about half the hot water between passes. That much water volume we have no problems with it getting hot during or after the pass.

I think if weight was a concern your small radiator is a better solution.

Have you considered a engine oil cooler, best thing since grouting my block..

Hey saw the LED lights you have on your firewall and it seems like your running some in your interior also. Maybe you could do a video on them like what witch ones you used. They look like they work good. Thanks for all the great content.

John, wouldn’t you be able to lengthen both sides of the anti roll bar links and get a little more clearance? Looks like it in the video, rather than raise the ride height.

A crap ton better after the plugs being changed for the spooling of the turbo

I've got a street 4 link car that i haven't tested at the track yet, love it when you talk any suspension stuff, and I'll be sure to check the plugs thanks buddy

Question for 18psi what should i make my plug gap at stock boost was 10psi i was runing .028 with 18 psi should i run .024 or .022 because at .026 i still got blowout at wot Thank u godbless🙏

[AntonioClaudioMichael]

The plugs look in decent condition there not oil fouled thats good

[jnltreemasters]

Your missing a bolt int the chunk cover lol

[SketchysGarage]

You thought about a heat sink instead of a small radiator, be easy to mount? Thanks for the Video.

That Foxes engine bay makes me not feel so bad about mine.

J/k….

Turbo life will make you lazy on maintenance! Nitrous days i was changing plugs after every pass. Now i change them maybe twice a season.

[robertdouglas]

Your intelligence is by far more important than big money John! Money helps though!

[jayhernandez]

John what tuning software do you use?
Keep doing a great job.

[panasonicchrome]

Good Video 👍 I wonder if its better to use colder plugs if i gonna drive a car to e 85 instead and gasoline ? Must i change the injector to and another stuff to? I drive a Camaro V6 3.4 1993

[justinturner]

What a cool idea to wire lights in your engine bay!👍

SUPER AWESOME 😎 VIDEO this 1 TurboJohn...
... as you gave me SO MUCH info for my Build here in Australia 🇦🇺

I would make my own external dump. Just plump a cheater nitrous solenoid on the cooler line. You can then use nitrous jets tune it for a softer hit.
