Changed my plugs on my 94 wrx to Ngk BKR6EIX. They should be fine right? Any how my car is chipped to run 1/1.1bar boost. Now after a quick drive, noticed, either a slight miss fire or its just a boost leak? The boost is only reaching 0.7 bar. I believe the plugs came pre gapped to 0.8m. Do I need to change the gapps on the plugs?

Nope just checked, I do actually have the pfr6b's in, but i gapped them to 0.7, which is a very small gap. And now I have a lumpy idle
sounds a bit like a dragster lol.

more likely coilpacks are damaged and taking them in and out has made them worse... check the ends aren't cracked. 0.7mm is not too small but correct

The coil packs were inspected before put in again, all was well, they actually looked brand new
So is the gapping the cause of lumpy idle, guess i'll have to live with it.
