    car breaks up around 6k rpm

    Just put 19t's on my stealth. Now it breaks up real bad at around 6k rpm, I replaced the plugs and checked for vac leaks and cant find any. Could it be the car is needing a tune because of the new 19t's, went from 13g's, so there is a lot more air going through. What else could it be?

    .032 brand new ngk iridiums, msd wires. It did the same thing with my ngk coppers gapped to .032. That's why I changed the plugs out.

    try .028 and see if that helps...it's free so it's a good place to start.

    Do you have one? If so, did it help with spark blowout at high load?

    Going to have to get back to you the next time I change the plugs. I really want to do some testing with it to see how much it works at different plug gaps.
