Jamesy Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 blimey that seems cheap - best quote i got for proper BPU spark plugs was £44. make sure they aint copper ones as apparently they will NOT do your car any good running bpu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 make sure they aint copper ones as apparently they will NOT do your car any good running bpu Huh? I've been using exactly those plugs for the last 3 years: both on my BPU and Single Turbo. They are copper and they're fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 The price is about right for BCPRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesy Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 fair enough fellas - just going by what i was told when i asked the question to 3 of the traders on this site! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Same here jake, been using them for years at stock, BPU and single. They're fine but need to be chnaged more often on the single. fair enough fellas - just going by what i was told when i asked the question to 3 of the traders on this site! Did they want to sell you some iridiums by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 ha ha - yeah something like that. to be straight with you i dont really know too much about it all as fairly new - so was just going on what i was told by some of the respected traders....who said that the copper ones are seriously not up to scratch on bpu and above........ ...however if i'm wrong then fair enough - it wouldn't be the 1st time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Just change them at 6k miles at the MINIMUM!!! And make sure the gap is correct for your boost before installing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan.G Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 IMO when running BPU i would always go for some Copper plugs. After the det i heard at the turbo change over point on a standard ecu at 1bar i would not want to use some irridiums just incase the tips broke from the extreme pressure and heat.

Jamesy Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Ryan - any chance you could check with James @ ToyotaGT for me what he is ordering when he does the bpu for me? (not sure if he is getting them through you or not?) i dont mind which ones he gets if they are ok, but its about £30 difference in price....
