This (http://www.ngk.com/charglossary.asp?kw=Heat+range) is worth a read to understand why you need 'colder' sparkplugs in a turbo/modified engine. Let us all know how much the NGK BCR8ES sparkplugs come out at, I need to purchase a set also. :y:

You need a grade colder than norm
but you also need to make sure it has the rite seat, ie taper, flat or washer in order to seal correctily

Nice one, I melted a plug that was about half a cm too long at 120mph - scary -, Ricky P saved the day when it ragged the fudge out of my head when coming out!.

the plugs are 2 grades colder, they are a tiny bit shorter and fit perfect :y: but thanks for the advice. good read :)
