Message	: Hey guys, : I got my Z dyno tuned earlier this year, and pulled rather disappointing numbers. Mod wise, I'm basically Stillen stage 9 (just for reference), without the intercoolers. Becuase I have nitrous, instead of the platnium plugs, I used NGK ZFR7F-11 copper plugs, gapped to .035. Without nitrous, pulled 303HP, 336 ft/lbs of torque. Really, really disappointing because many Stage 3 TT Zs do better. : Tomorrow I plan on changing my oil (Mobil 1 10w30) and filter, and thought I would change my copper plugs while I was working on the Z. Thinking to go one step hotter on the plugs, but still stay copper. What do you think? What are the one step warmer plugs than the NGK ZFR7F-11s? : Thanks! : Rob
