Spark plug replacements

I have been having a few issues I think caused by some plugs that have taken to much fuel from the stock tune and I wanted to know what replacemnt plugs I should get for the 2008 X GSR. I dont really want to go to so i will most likly be going to NAPA. Thanks

I figured they would be, do you have the NGK part number cause I just talked to Mitsubishi and they said they couldnt get them until next week. I checked NGKs website and they are not listed. They auto parts store only pulls up some Autolite Iridiums

If NGK is indeed the OEM make spark plugs, there should be a stamped part # on the plug. either on the hex part or the ceramic part.

Pull one out and see if you can get the part #. Contact NGK and they'll tell you which plug is a direct replacement.

Unfortunately, our Evo X is in storage...so don't have access.

is that like, the NGK BPRE6 ? Great plug for a stock boosted X, I've run them in all my stockish 4g63's, before i step up a couple of heatranges for higher boost.

Did a little research and discovered that factory NGK plugs are only availible from a Mitsubishi dealer right now. My local NAPA guy called NGK directly.
