Default NGK Racing plugs with AEM EMS

How many folks are using these? Running into any issues? Just curious as they are a non-resistor plug, do they cause any issues with the EMS? (AEM EMS is already finicky when it comes to cam/crank signal noise as it is). Or does it not really matter since the coil is directly on top of the plug? (No HT leads)

X2. Don't run non resisters period in the tC, random misfire issues will happen.

Thats what I was afraid of, only bad thing is the Iridium plugs on high boost/E85 Ive ran into some issues. Is there any copper resistor plug in the 8-9 heat range?

NGK makes them, you may have to call them. What gap are you running?

I did some digging and the only copper resistor plug I can find is a BKR8E-11 or BKR8E. The problem with this, is these plugs arent sold in the US as they are only used on some certain bikes. Guess Ill try my luck with the Iridiums again :/ Maybe try running a .020 gap

I thought the plug to use with the TRD supercharger was the Denso Ik24 gapped to .040?

Niiice I was eyeing those but was afraid a 13/16 socket might not fit down in our valve cover, but it does?

I called NGK and they told me they don't have any BKR8E or BKR8E-11, they only have BKR8EIX. The only difference in the BKR7E and BKR7E-11 is the gap, just showing you an example.

Just found out NGK has resistor racing plugs, if your set on running these then give them a call.
