headers and off road this week!!! Spark plug help too

chatmanv6 · 04-30-2006, 08:48 AM

This week I am putting on long tubes and off road x from bbk..I have a flowmatser cat back and I was wondering how much hp will I gain from the long tubes and the o/r x and how will it sound? I also have a k/n cold air..Does the 2002gt come with stock yellow spark plugs. the reason why I am asking is cuz when i bought the car it already had cat back and intake so I was just wondering..thanks you any help..the long tubes are ceramic too:clap:

All I can say is that I have a full exhaust setup too, and you are going to have a HUGE **** eating grin on your face when you first hear your car, I know I did big time.

Its going to be VERY loud, but you will love it. From a full exhaust setup you will see 18-20 RWHP and with a CAI probably around 24 to the wheels all together.

Congrats man.

"stock yellow spark plugs?" You lost me?

chatmanv6 · 04-30-2006, 06:52 PM

There is no such thing as a yello plug. Are you talking about the fuel injectors?

Actually, the yellow plugs he is probably refering to are Accel Spark plugs. No, they did NOT come stock.

OK..sorry, I had never heard of yellow plugs before.

Not a prob, they have been around for a while though:

Your original plugs would of been "WHITE" in color and MOTORCRAFT of course. Hey,good luck with the headers they are a @#$*&%! to get on. Set aside alot of time and if you get frustrated take a break. I suggest you get a 10mm Ratchet wrench for the nuts & new bolts.Oh ya and a set of VISEGRIPS for the studs that may be stubborn. I just put my SLP LONGTUBES on last week. Don't know anything about those plugs but I just put in NGK TR6's. They are one step colder than stock. If you need any tips let me know cuz like I said I just did mine and it's still plenty fresh in my mind and my knuckles are still heeling. LOL
