So the hotter type plug does a worse job. Interesting... I will have to think about why this might be.

For clarification:
Were you running Water injection?
Was this completely under boost, or did it exhibit the same behavior under vacuum/idle?

I have seen mileage improve by changing heat ranges, but I thought I went to a hotter plug to improve the economy. I apologize - unlike your awesome data acquisition systems, I have to rely on my ever-more-sketchy memory.

I will think about what would cause this and post again if I can think of something.
