[s-cars] Spark Plugs

[matt ludwig]

completely not true at all.

believe me when i say this, it is coming from someone who OPENLY  
admits I am one of the lesser knowledgeable people(s) on this list  
and do not mean to come off sounding like a d!ck, but i suggest you  
read a little bit about turbocharging principals and more  
importantly, about detonation w/ regard to compression.

it is far from this simple a reduction in logic. if this were true,  
then then the old Pacer's here acting as Taxi's would run the same  
plugs as a new GTS. hardly the case...

sincerely,

matt ludwig.
