turning over with radix
#1
when i installed the radix, i didnt change the plugs back to stock/or better. when i ran my nitrous, i had some basic delcos that were 2 cores cooler. would this be the reason why the truck wont turn right over? if so, which NGK....tr5 or tr6. on tybrne's site, it recommends the tr6 pregapped at like .035. this what the Radix needs?

Radix will run with stock plugs. TR6 is recommended, or a similar plug in similar heat range. Plugs may not be your problem, don't know that TR5s would cause it not to turn over. Are you sure you got all your injectors hooked up right?

the motor turns over fine. example....
i woke up this morn around 7 am...went outside to crank the truck and pull it in the garage...took like 4 secs to turn over. (cold start) turned it off in the garage....5 mins later..cranked it again....no problem at all

That sounds like it could be a tuning issue. I would change the plugs and wires before I dug much deeper into it though.
You have a fuel pressure gauge hooked up to it? It might be bleeding off fuel pressure too.

I think what he meant is most people on the forums and most people in the know would recommend going 2 steps cooler than stock with a blown motor. I don't think he meant it was enscribed in a stone wall somewhere that John Doe recommended it.
