Does it still misfire if you turn the boost down? Even though the plugs look ok, they could be gapped too wide and you could be blowing out spark. Try gapping them down to .025" |

what plugs are they we run br8es in coreys and my car they are a non-projected tip motorcycle plug we use the non projected tips because if you look at the normal bpr8es' after they have beeen ran for awhile the first few threads are black from combustion. the non projected tips dont stick as far into the cylinder helping to evenly burn the fuel mixture reduce hot spots and reduce knock. |

I used to always run the BR8ES plus in mine, but I found that I was fouling them out too fast. They were too cold. I went back to BR7's and it works a lot better for me. I'm not sure how running E85 plays into it, since I don't use E85, but I would think you'd want a warmer plug with E85 because it cools down the combustion so much. |

Gap Em @ .020 and check spark plug wires, coil pack, cam sensor, wires and all plugs make sure everything is nice and tight no cuts on the wires and check ur battery terminals make sure there tight...Let me Know after all that...................... |

7's gapped at .020" and your problems will disappear. I had a hell of a time trying to get my bpr7's gapped at .028" from misfiring at ~32psi. Gapped them down to .020" and now misfire went away. |
