If you can get them apart a gram kitchen scale should be close enough. Thanks in advance (at lest to try)

Trying out new spark plugs which seem significantly better for ethanol NGK LKR8AP

On Racing? Officially Racing uses ILZKR8C-8G, but they are muy expensivo and seem utterly crap (at least for ethanol, see pink color).
These seem to work perfectly with ethanol though they are originally meant for BMW M3 / M5.

Jamie,

You are running those on a THP 155, correct?

How long have you been running them? Are they good?

Thanks

Was always told OEM were best- and Ive got an extra set of Iridium plugs that cost me £35 too
Surely- if they work, they work. Don't want different ones breaking up and dropping into the chamber

yes, I have a late 150THP running stage 3 clutch killer!! Had these plugs in for well over a year now, they have performed perfectly.
About time I changed them for a new set.

Upgraded by-pass with VW internals

Had to get rid of Forge spacer as it does not fit with the new internals. Anyways here it is, I'll link few vids later after they are uploaded on YT...

Sorry for bad quality.

Why didn't you bought the complete recirculation valve directly?
Think that's the same price as you paid now for the different parts. Maybe a bit less, but that Forge valve is the best Solution imo

I paid less than 50 euros for the complete by-pass valve? I changed the metallic internals into the old shell as they have different electric connectors.
Forge is way more expensive, like few hundred quids? I have only spacer which was around 70 euros.

Okay, so in totall €120 as I understood? For €240 you can buy the complete Forge Valve and with that valve you can switch springs when tuning the Car.
This Valve is then completly aluminium so nothing can break off.
So in my eyes, the forge valve is the best solution on the market at the moment.
If you look to the money, yes it's more expensive, but it's more reliable also, and that's what you want I guess, otherwise you also wouldn't buy the forged pistons etc.

[Ragnarok]

No, you are wrong

I purchased Forge spacer long time ago when I had no further plans so far. After my engine broke I had to rebuild it and Wössner with ZRP con rods cost 1200e in total vs. one stock piston ~500-600e. Without engine breakdown I definitely would not have changed any pistons or con rods.

Forge stuff is overpriced regardless of the topnotch quality. It was cheaper to get the upgraded internals 50e vs 240e for complete by-pass.

Verstaand vriend? ;D

Just a general up-to-date.

Been driving with ethanol for +5000kms so far with no issues, let's hope it stays that way.
