I've got Bosch Platinums in at the moment and am going to replace them soon but would like an opinion on the best choice, probably NGK but which ones, T.I.A.

Robert Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 They don't stock the BKR5EGP but they have the BKR5EYA there, still over priced as they are about £1.40 per plug from my local place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted July 1, 2007 Author Share Posted July 1, 2007 What to use when MAPPING? A. Use only copper plugs when mapping. Iridium plugs should be saved for an engine that is already mapped and tested on coppers. This is because the mapping process is fraught with danger and that danger is det. Detonation will ruin a copper plug, but the engine will be kept safe. An iridium plug is much more immune to det and other parts of the engine can suffer long before the plugs do. Stay safe and use copper plugs when mapping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
