spark plug gap with turbo
I just bought Denso Iridium spark plugs and I have my TSI extreme tubokit boosting 8 psi. I just wanted to know what I should gap these new spark plugs at.

Thanks.
Zach

iridiums are pre-gapped. and they are difficult to gap due to their fragility.

i gapped my plugs to .032" when i was running 10 psi
