Yep bart still running orig plugs, 58,000 miles. No codes since. It's driving and running fine , But the thermostat is def. sticking, Takes 15 min. to get up to 190 degrees.
I'm just dreading working on it in this cold azz weather.

My stock plugs were fine to about 38k, around that time they had a slight midload misfire but no misfires under high loads or anything. Not enough to throw a code though. I have NGK 3787s in it right now gapped at .030 and no issues for a few K. The stocks are the best and for higher boost gap them down a bit. 032-030 is probally the best for around 24psi. I wish the stock clutch could hold more boost lol. It was holding 25.5psi but I could tell it was giving a little bit so I backed it down to conserve the clutch.
