A very humble, Yes. While I’m sure I’d understand it sooner or later, but it made me feel like I would be trying to explain software polymorphism and inheritance. You’d get it, but best left for a classroom.
Yeah, I have a fully built RMW 1.62 forged motor and run 100 VP M-1Meth linked to the duty cycle of the injectors with a TVS-900 SC and when it gets tuned it will be more than 300 Whp. (At the wheels)
Currently my OEM W11 motor with the OEM M45 SC is 268 whp with the same Meth kit and a ViPEC / Link stand alone ECU. JAN, owner of RMW is the man when it comes to tuning.
Well, I've built and tuned some ridiculous cars, plug gap and heat range is a class room discussion on to it's own. In a nut shell, more boost/compression, the plug should be colder and the gap narrower, being , a hotter plug has more tendency to preignition as it becomes a glowing electrode and the gap, when under boost/high compression, needs to be narrower so the combustion can take place, it's harder to ignite super compressed air/fuel mix and keep flame propagation.
Or, it blows out the candles....
Most common on street tuned, 91-93 octane (USA) 1 range colder and gap from .026 to .030.
Alternative fuels, a whole different class.....
I've played on "The Tail" on my sport bike, I have a pic from Kill-Boy, very entertaining and at times technical.
Would be a time and a half in a nice running Mini.....
I ask because in the older vehicles I’ve owned the gap was posted on the hood and seemed to remain constant irrespective of a plug’s maker. For the N18, I’ve read varying plugs gaps based on maker.
I use NGK they should be pre-gaped. Some modern plug are not adjustable. If you check the gap you have to be careful due to the small electron. The Bentley manual does not give a gap. I change my plugs more often then I do something like my old bike.
Hope you'll be done for MOTD, we'll need to give each other rides this year.
Esp now that my brakes are done...Lol
Got a little hairy at the end of the event last year.
Really interested in riding in a TVS car.
