colder plugs are a must with a turbo. otherwise they'll burn themselves out and you will cause strain on your crank because you arent getting even strokes. you will also waste a lot of feul.

My mechanic said to wait and see on the spart plug, Im a little pissed at him since he put all others infront of me, and the car is still not in the shop. We just had a snow storm, and theres 6 inches of snow on the car. So yea, Im a little pissed right not to say the least.

Install the damn thing yourself. You better get colder plugs dude. Oh and NAILBUNNY My car chugs gas when I hit boost.

no kiddin', ive never heard of that happening. but then again i never thought a battery would blow-up in my face either, yet it happened....

im just saying that if you're misfiring in one cylinder. you will waste a lot of feul because a whole cylinder will go unburnt and you will get gas pooling in your exhaust.

good thing you are bringing up details of how touchy turbo is also.. how often should i be doing maintenance on turbo system to keep checking ... and what types of things should i be checking for to make sure that everything is ok?
