I just went through the same predicament and ended up ordering the HKS M40iL plugs. They are 1 step colder. If the stock plugs look good when I pull them, then I'll re-gap them and save them

Welcome [lovekia]

If you never plan on increasing boost or modding, then I wouldn't worry about it. There have been a couple reports of plug issues on stock cars, but if that happens, just take it in for warranty work. You won't notice any difference in performance with a stock car with stock plugs vs a stock...

I'm sure a true ECU flash will require re-gapping or replacing the plugs. A gap of .036 just doesn't work for boost. You can't tune around that

That's awesome news. Were the downpipes not playing nice with the piggyback or just planning a big store update?

They start production in a week or 2, so I should hopefully have my hands on it mid May. Until then, I can't say

A little of both. I chose the magnaflow intentionally because it is quiet. With the downpipes it should bring the sound up to a nice level. If you see the pics of the stock downpipes above, they do have a small catalytic converter on them, so removing that restriction will definitely free up...

[unbelieveable] Can't wait for that announcement! Sales@Tork when are your downpipes going to be on sale? I ordered the magnaflow catback and would like to install your downpipes at the same time [cool]

This is from the Sales@Tork FB page. Stock obviously in the middle. Hopefully they release these soon [biggrin]

Nope, they are Treadstone filters that do not require oil

I didn't get to test it too much on the way to work this morning, but the throttle response is definitely improved. I managed to break the tires loose a couple times. The sound is the most noticeable improvement of course. As for the design, people get too hung up on CAI, WAI, sealed box...

Intake arrived! Super easy install. 2 bolts on the cross bar, 3 bolts on the intake box, 1 clamp. Love the looks, love the sound. Ready to put some miles on it now! Thanks Sales@Tork

Yea, 93 octane from top tier gas stations since day 1. I ran 4 or 5 tanks of 93 through my engine before putting on the JB4.

It's been a couple weeks on map 1. A lot of sport mode, hard driving, and the car has been amazing. It just pulls hard! Only thing I haven't tried is launch control. I have the tork motorsports intake being delivered tomorrow. I'm hoping to regap the spark plugs and try map 2 after that.

Sounds great. Can't wait for them to be released

Placed my order. Hopefully the exhaust and intercooler parts come out soon too [biggrin]

Seems like a pretty marginal expense to avoid breaking the plug by banging it on a workbench. I would prefer regapping the stock plugs over replacement because colder plugs are a dead giveaway of increased boost, should a tech have a reason to look at them of course. And I don't want to change...

I've been running map 1 and 93 octane with no issues at all. Definitely interested in regapping the stock plugs and trying map 2 next. I've read pulling the plugs is not the easiest process though. Would a tool like this be necessary to regap the plugs...

I've only put a few miles on it since installing, on the default map, and there is a very noticeable difference.
