regardless it sucks and anything mechanically can fail at any given time !


side note, you cant always depend on your afr, theres alot more to it than that, spark plugs being the best bet, checking them often works wonders! i do it even on my NA setup, this determines the number of plug i need to run along with timing blah blah blah!

why isnt it a daily? its just a stock motor with a turbo? then agian you probably mean you just dont drive it often

Skeet what's your method of reading your plugs? I herd you can't really read plugs unless you shut off your motor right after the pass and push it back to the pits or after a dyno pull. Not to sure

Yea your plug readings are only good if the motor is shut off right after a pull.
