OEM

I'm using NGK platinum just because that's what the mechanic recommended. They seem good, but then again, I had a misfire before so anythings better than that!

i know Awesome recommend the BKR8EIX. they can be had off eBay for £22 delivered, so if it were me i'd just change them. i'm not even running a map and i'm going for a set of those, see if i can cure this pesky misfire i have at 6500rpm

PS - what's the difference between BKR7EIX and BKR8EIX?

The latter are one step colder than the former.  :smiley:

OE ones are £40. I have just ordered BKR8EIX for £22 on the advice of a few tuners.
