    That is too cold for a T. I use that plug in an RS spec engine. MFI.
    Try a 6. I usually just check the gap out of the box to make sure they haven't been pinched as those plugs are really hard to gap. The electrode is very fine.
    Great plugs

    I would agree.

    We normally just use a standard NGK 6BPRES.

    If you take it on Trackday the '7s' would be an idea but day to day I would just use a 6.



    Much easier to gap.

    That's great thank you.

    What gap for the 6s, I changed to a Bosch dizzy. Apart from That it's a standard ignition

    Really appreciate your help
