it seems like you may be lean on the top end trying to compensate for the rich low end. does your engine return to a stable idle quickly after a wot run or does it idle high for 5 or more seconds?
Thank you for the explanation of the long and short turbo plugs!

Right now it will idle high for 3-5 seconds and then at that point it will bog and die within another couple seconds. The c6tf plugs and the od 97T were the ones I was burning up. Right now our humidity in the NE is pretty high.

I think I'm going to try an OS p3 and go from there they say that plug will make anything idle.
