If you're running N/A open the gap about 2 dots wider than factory specs. This will allow the spark to burn a more complete cumbustion.
Now that you have a stronger spark, this is one of those "inside" racer tips that will improve performace.

Turbo or Nitrous applications however are in another ball game! We do the opposite!

I'm running my V-power plugs at .054". I did experiments from .049" to up to .064" though and didn't notice anything drastic about the performance.
