You can use THESE.
They are a cheaper alternative and favored by many. Replace every 3k miles or whenever needed. You will also need to gap them smaller.

the gap will depend on your car.
if it misfires during boost lessen the gap.

try 0.7mm

speedcorps probly has not updated website so dont trust it. well i rather get the cheaper one (v-power) but i want to know that they will work the same. I just pulled out the turbo and manifold and the entire exhaust. I have a leak somewhere and decided to just pull the entire set up out and replace all gaskets. (i love my impact wrench)

How did you get the nut on the bottom left hand corner on the manifold back on? I can't seem to do it. Are you testing the exhaust system for a leak while it's off.

mercer.. that bottom left hand nut u have to thread on my fingur tip and then use a racket wrench to tighten up.. it look me about 15 attempts to figure out that a socket just wont work. if urs is any more difficult then mine use to be, then GL with figureing out an easy way to get to it..
(i dont have a/c or powersteering now, so i got alot more room.. lol)

yeah. didn't take long at all to get all of it off. I took the exhaust off just to replace the gaskets. pretty sure its a gasket.
