another question lol what boost will the stock ignition cope with

[mini valver]

Say you had iridium plugs and some good 8mm ht leads I heard a tale today there is a limit on the boost it can cope with

[jamesglanza]

I'm soon to be running around 1.5bar, have heard of people running up to near 1.8bar but how safe it is I couldn't tell you

People normally turn to COP ignition around 350 - 370 bhp area.

Thats normally at the kinda boost levels you start blowing out the spark.

[gorganl2000]

i've personally seen the stock ignition system handle boost up to 1.5 bar with no issues on gt28/td05 sized turbos...which as said above tend to give about 350bhp

the individual components would need to be in good condition--plugs, wires, coil, distributor, igniter, coil

and your plugs may need to be gapped appropriately/smaller at higher boost levels to avoid blow out

others have claimed to run more than 1.5bar...the most i've heard is 2.0 bar on a gt28....but at these boost levels, you tend to have other issues to worry about such as head bolts, h/gasket, etc---IF they are stock

And you rate these Phil Eh. The heat range 7 ngk no good??

It was pushing 1.93 bar had no issue but the boost was tailing off so Av ordered a stronger wastegate spring see if that was the issue just a friend said he was surprised I had no issue that was the reason for the question thanks for reply lads

[Phil]

Heat range 8

Though 7 if your mixing your own cooler fuel.

I have ran upto 25 psi on the stock ignition and it has been fine with iridium plugs, stock leads. As said when all the ignition parts are in good condition it will be fine.
