Spark plug gap when using coil pack
Really sorry if this has been covered a thousand times before.
Whats the standard plug gap for a turbo'd motor when running a coil pack?
Standard ERST gap is 0.7mm.
Thanks

Is the spark not likely to get blown out with a gap that big?

No problem at all, but may as well make full use of the coil pack
