I changed the plugs on my car and now it feels like it does not go up rpms as fast as it did. I think the gap clearance is fucked up, I'm gaped at .54 nothing done besides intake and hpipe. Any thoughts?

tr6's are cold plugs for cars with ~12-15psi of boost, they're what I run in my truck.
I don't think they should be used in a stock GT.

True, but at the same time I don't think the colder plug would cause the OP to notice a change in driving characteristics if they are gapped accordingly?

i think i might be leading towards another problem my brother claims it might be the fuel filter being dirty because he says it feels like there is not enough fuel going in and holds it back ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

If you ran regular spark then put colder spark plug I'm pretty sure it not going to run the same even if it gapped the same

Wou wont "feel" a colder plug...at first. If the plug is too cold of a heat range it wont clean itself,carbon up, and foul.
