Well first off .044 is what is supposed to be stock. With a Vortech they recomend .035.

Try copper, one heat range colder and .035 plugs

Is there any solution to running plugs that have longer life versus copper? I had to change the plugs on my Supra so often that it became tiresome.

Pop sound from the exhaust is probably a backfire...
