Evo 9 Spark Plug List, Also how to read plugs.

ITS RECOMMEND FOR EVERY 100HP OVER STOCK, 1 STEP COLDER

Here is a list I compiled from a few post:

NGK:
LFR7AIX - Stock Heat Range ($8.00 each sparkplugs.com), For those with local advance autos ($12.99 each)
ILFR7H - Factory Plug ($11.71 each sparkplugs.com), For those with local advance autos ($18.99 each)
R7437-8 - 1 Step Colder Racing plug ($41.52 each sparkplugs.com)

Denso:
IKH22 - Stock Heat Range ($11.95 each sparkplugs.com)
IKH24 - 1 Step Colder ($11.95 each sparkplugs.com)
IKH27 - 2 Steps Colder

Stock/Lightly modded cars I would use stock heat range.
Full Bolt-on/Swaped Turbo cars I would recommend colder plugs.

Dont forget Buschur sells NGK std. plugs for the IX, dunno what part # or where they got them because NGK doesnt even know about them.

But I talked to a guy who runs them and said the are NGK, they are non-iridium and they are the correct length.

I think they are like $25.00 for a set or something like that?

I asked for a part number but they wouldn't give it to me.....but I know of 2 people (myself included) who contacted NGK direct and they had no clue what I was talking about. So figure that one out?

Don't forget these plugs. They are copper core. So you will have to change them more often. For the price I don't mind changing them with every oil change.

NGK BPR7ES - Stock heat range. $2.24 each Sparkplugs.com
NGK BPR8ES - 1 step colder. $2.24 each Sparkplugs.com

From what I have read people gap these plugs at .026

Those plugs you listed have a 19.05mm reach vs needing a 26.5mm reach.

SO I WILL REPEAT, DO NOT USE THOSE IN YOUR MOTOR!!!

you can also use HKS S40IL (1 step colder than OEM).
they look the same as the Denso IKH24 - so I guess they are Denso plugs

I also find a racing version of the IKH24 named IKH01-24 but I've never tested it.

IKH27 is 2 steps colder if you want to add those to your list as well.

Thank you for compiling all the info... this may stop me from answering 2 or 3 PM's per week

Are you sure about the stock gap ? i could have sworn it was .024
