Default spark plugs

i got a giac chipped ecu coming in the mail and it won't be here for probably 3 days or so. i just got done seafoaming my engine and changing the oil. i picked up some ngk spark plugs when i got the oil and read on another post that i would have to regap them to .28. my question is can i put them in now with the .28 gap and not have to worry about it or should i gap it to something else then change them when i install the new ecu or should i just wait untill the ecu comes and install them then. thanks for any help

You can install them just regap them to .020 after you gap them just put them in so your ready to go when you get your ecu.

i don't know if you guys answered my question or not..maybe i'm just slow. would it be ok to put the spark plugs in at the .028 gap before i install the new ecu a couple of days from now?
