I'm not sure if it applies to Evos as well...but some of the newer cars start throwing 02 sensor codes if you don't use the iridium/platinum/recommended plugs. Best bet, unless your car is heavily modified/tuned, would be to stick with the NGK plugs.

I'm going to have to agree with this, NGK plugs all the way.

i will say this ngk is one of the best brands of spark plugs period. i have yet to see any other spark plug that would suffice to the demands of the 4b11t. The only thing i can hope for is that ngk sees the need for a colder plug for the more built guys

What is the actual NGK plug product code/number? Is it the same in the UK as in the US?

Ok let's kick the question up a notch for the NGK folks.

Which NGK the IX or the Laser Iridiums?
