What part # did he tell you? These are OEM NGK plugs made only for the B-series modular engines. Bx8 (B38, B48, B58).

You change it by yourself on your sparks or it comes from factory with this gap 0.022? Wich is the part number of it? Now want to buy the sparks and to take right one. Want to make stage2 (thinking yet OTS map or custom tune)

Refer to this post, part # 95248. I’m waiting for his confirmation anyway:

Yes, did by myself. Removed factory plugs, gapped and installed back on. Cheers.

Jokes on me... when I installed new plugs at 20k they were the BMW NGK plugs from BMW... so looks like I have an extra set now of the 94201 NGK plugs.

Oh well

NGK's site says those are for the i8, but I'm sure they work for our cars. I prefer to follow NGK's official OEM fitment from their site: the 94201's.

Got a confirmation from Alex:

"Both 95248 and 94201 are correct NGK part numbers. One is specific to Supra and other is for BMW, though both work on any B58."

I'll be ordering 94201

CEL on after a year of having the stage 1 Tune. I sent an email to Alex hopefully he responds soon but I figured I would post here and see if anyone else had an issue. The other day just I started my car no warnings on the Idrive or dash just the CEL on. I ran the code and I am getting 190302 which a quick google seemed to be something NVLD fuel leakage FC. It happened at a perfect time as the car was set to go in for service anyway. I flashed the car back and of course, the code clears and doesn't come back on.

Anyways, my SA is very tuner friendly and told him the car is back to stock and the code I got was above. He had the part tested and it came back clean. I drove the car for 2 weeks not tuned no issues. I put the tune back in because let's face it; I missed it and I had some decent driving to do that day. The next morning I started the car and bam CEL back on with the same code. I flashed it back to stock and the car is fine. I run 93 gas and I know it is not from filling the car up with the engine running. Does anyone have any ideas as I wait for Alex?

Thanks in advance

Not a single issue here and I beat on the car when possible

.

Refer to this thread for a fix. The 190302 CEL code - looks like you have similar evap leak:

I spoke to Alex yesterday and I am going to flash back to stage 1 and see if the Evap error will eventually trigger an error that will come back when I flashback to stock. I beat on the car when I can as well. It is just weird the PSI boost throws the code and when it is stock it doesn't and I jump on it just like i did when it is tuned. Hopefully, I can get it to stay on after flashing back to stock so the dealer can replace the part under warranty. I miss having the tune right now

NGK 94201 plugs are in! Set gap to 0.023. Car runs great 8 gal 93/2gal E85, sent logs to Alex.

boosted · 12-23-2019, 11:29 PM

Running the plugs over 1k mi now - absolutely love it. With unusual warm temps (50*) and mixing E85/93 - car feels great. I should find a stretch, get on it and log. Can’t wait when 1/4 strip opens up next year. Cheers!

Get em!

Can someone confirm the flash order or if it matters? Engine first or trans first? I plan on flashing Stage 3 engine and Stage 2 Trans this weekend once I have time to install the NGK plugs I ordered.

I had the exact same question for my tuner and he recommended doing the transmission flash before we start his custom tune, in order to remove the torque limiters.
That being said, I've been running MHD Stage 2 E30 for 2 months without the xHP flash. Probably wouldn't have hurt to do the xHP flash before I did the MHD flash.

I did Stg 3 engine first, then followed with trans tune. The flash instructions on page 1 also follow the same sequence.

Bump, just enjoying the reliable and powerful tune. Dyno session soon

Has anyone on mFlasher had Alex tune with Pure's 800 turbo?
