Heat Range of Spark Plugs

Stock - IGR7A-G/BPR7EIX/BPR7ES
1/2 step colder BR8EIX
Full step BPR8EIX/BPR8ES
is this the right trend?

I think BP (non-projected) is a half step colder than projected BPR.

So BPR7 -> BP7 -> BPR8 -> BP8 etc..
But i also think most people would agree than projected plug works better in 4G63 (stock plug is projected as well). It lights up the mixture in a more optimal spot, which requires less flame travel, which obviously is good (technically and theoretically it would mean it provides a smaller MBT)

P= Projected
R= Resistor

So it would be BPR7 -> BR7 -> BPR8 -> BR8 etc...

gonna make a move from stock IGR7A-G but don't wanna make too much off a move so the BR7EIX would be fine

Thanks
