Arias pistons has a designe on hand that I have in my car and will turn your set-up into 9.5:1. also their ceramic coated so "bring on the heat"
cost 800.00

If you can't do that then the methanol choice is your only alternative. This will allow you to compinsate for that 10.5:1 ratio your stock motor has.

This is how it works:

It reduces air inlet temperatures which allows users to increase boost pressure (and advance timing on forced induction gas applications) to create more power by utilizing the cooling effects of the system under heavy load.

Thats the short and skinny of it. Also run 93 octane and a NGK BKR7E racing plug. You will get great results. That is the most widely used tunner plug around.

Good luck

thats what i thought, i didnt see any posts in regards to pre detonation u cant run big boost unless u use 94+ octane up to 6psi with an apexi neo fuel management, & if u run 7-8 psi like i do on my solara's then u need a urd split second & a meth kit using a 375 nozzle, im running a stock 3.0 10.5 compression & im getting 304.5 whp & 302.7 lbft, the stock engines whp is about 150 so i doubled the output of the 3.0 with no problems, but the gas is the most important factor when running high boost......

I got Denso IK22's instead of the NGK's. Also the TRD pluggs are just IK22's that are slightly modified.


Probably the same plug lol - NGK might be made by Denso.

Not even close. NGK is by NGK. The most widely used plug in racing. and the BKR7E the most widely used plug for tunning 4 cyl turbo cars hands down. Except no substatute.

Already have the denso's so oh well.

The ngk and denso.in heat range 7 weresame price, fwiw.

Denso's are highly regarded by others, so IDK?

i use Denso's in my car there great plugs never a misfire or failier.....

Well, how about this aras, I buy a box of NGK 7's and run them after the Denso's.

Or run them/test them next to each other? lol

Won't notice what a plug is doing AS LONG AS it's doing its job.
