HELP!! new plugs arn't iridium!!
I called a shop to ask what type of plugs should i replace the stock plugs with.
Here is what they told me:
replace old with NGK BPR 7ES
I pulled the stock plug and:
it is a NGK IGR7A-G
Is the bpr 7es a good replacement or should I stick with the IGR7A-G??
Please help!!!
Mods: ams turbo back; ams intercooler; k&n drop in; base tune; new fuel pump

Farmer, BPR7ES/8ES is the proper nomenclature.
Also, being tuned doesn't mean he should use 8s. You _only_ use a colder range if you're blowing out the hotter range. It's better to stick with 7s as long as possible.
Rio-evo, a quick search would have shown you that the BPR7ES is copper and is the preferred plug on the Evo. Next time, do a little research before freaking out.

Indeed, the twinturbo ZR1 project I completed would not let us use the platinum plugs as the car would run like crap under boost. Changed to some new platinum plugs and it still ran like crap. We finally changed to a standard plug and the problems were fixed. This was at the suggestion of Lingenfelter.
