    i'm stage 1+ and when i went to switch over to the BKR7E's from the 6E's there was new packaging. maybe that's why the 7E's gave my car such a rough idle, because they're a new plug???

    probaly because they're colder, and the car is cold when you start it, so less fuel combustion is taking place, it's not uncommon.

    yeah, always wanted to get them.. could never force myself to wait for them to come, and pay $100 for plugs.. until now.

    the rough idle with 7E's was bad even when the car was warmed up, in warm weather. when it got cold it was basically a brutal startup in the morning.

    Weird...I'm running the 7Es with a very smooth idle at all times, even in Boston temps.
