Dukestr,
How long have you had it on your 4Runner? Can you estimate the number of miles also. I think it is kind of a crap shoot. Some experience no problems and others have to do all kinds of crap to run it. Never had ANY pinging at all? Thanks dude.

Matt

I've had my s/c for 26 months. I've put on ~30K on the s/c. Fortunately, I have not had any pinging since. No fuel mods, just added the Hayden Tranny cooler. Refer to this thread regarding getting colder plugs to possibly reduce/eliminate pinging.

FYI, if interested in getting Iridium plugs, I purchased a set of 4 yesterday for $26. I ordered part number NGK-BKR6EIX-11 (3764), which is the 1 heat range cooler plugs. Here is the link to the online store

You guys running the sc who are not pinging, are you running 91 or 93 octane?

Hey Duke:

Only 4 plugs?? What are you using for the other 2?? I guess the debate is still out there about using 1 or 2 stage cooler plugs...

there's one for sale in the Tulsa, OK craigslist (2nd gen charger) for $1500.

i'm sure the guy would drop the price with a little careful negotiating.

Damn, I got a little excited at this too. I'm in the library studying and took a break to see what's up on YT, definitely a let-down. I'm glad to still have my $1700+ though.
