Spark Cable & Spark Plug

[gohkokeng]

any1 got good DIY info for this?

my car is LMST 1.3 12V Caburetor.

I was planning to change Pro Tec 10mm and Bosch Super 4.

10q sifus here!

side gapped sparkplugs....

 

[khguan]

super 4 how to side gap?? hahaha!


gohkokeng,
bear in mind dat using thick spark plug cables will induce noise into ur sound system if u are into ICE.. especially u are using amps....

 

[gohkokeng]

khguan yaya i know but the boss of accessories shop said anything bigger than 10mm only will affect the sound system?.......

ha worry.....i just have mp3 player only

no amp, no woofer, no tweeter no extra speaker and such.

what is side gap?

 

[SkYwAlKeR]

side gap is ini...

wow useful information for DIY more powerful spark plug wo.....

did it really works?

potong the tiang abit?

 

[SkYwAlKeR]

depends la... not jz simply cutting of the tip geh... if u really want optimum performance, need to measure vr precisely.... if not, u might lose power...

 

[zeone]

me just checked out http://performanceunlimited.com/documents/plugsidegapping.html
Yup, theory is there...similar to Bosch Super 4 except only 1 side electrode instead of 4...modification is possible & practical, too.
Need proper tools & a really steady hand...haha...

Anyone tried it out?

gohkokeng,

actually cannot generalize >10mm will cause noise.

it depends on ICE system immunity to noise. some good one can
filter out the noise nicely. last time my prev car install 9.5mm oso
oledi hv noise.

my 10 sen.

yo bro......i just changed Pioneer 2850 without any added audio system

not a single amp, woofer, sub woofer, speaker, tweeter or such

will it still affect the sound? with just pioneer 2850 and ori OEM speaker?

 

[khguan]

not much of a prob...

stock plug cables is the best as quoted by many sifus... u will have noise if u use amps... if no amps... u are safe... seldom will have noise... unless ur HU is so lousy dat picks up every minor noise in the car electrical supply...

Pioneer mostly use MOSFETS for their amps instead of BTL IC amplifiers... MOSFETS are good amplifier transistors. Should be less susceptible to noise. But then, you never know the power supply block design..... ?? after test, only can know lo..

I hv question oso...
thicker spark plug cables will give bigger spark. (as lower resistance).
so bigger spark can cause plugs to wear more is it? if that is case,
better to install stromberg where it increase frequency of sparking, but
spark is not bigger. or super 4 better (side gap x4)? which is better?
is it worth the RM to chg the cable? how many hp can improve if chg cable
to example NGK Racing Power Cables?

for a wira in performance wise what kina spark plugs are recomended ?
