plugs.....................which ones for a 370bhp 5 ?

I know there are loads of threads about plugs on all the forums, but i would like to know which plugs you have used and what grade etc..... which ones did you find best? also are the denzo plugs idenical to HKS? or are they different?

I have used HKS for years but recently changed to NGKs and i didnt think the car runs quite as sweet, could just be me though.........the NGKs are grade 7, is that the correct heat range for the car? cant remeber the hks code i used :shock:


Cheers

Trev. :thumbsup!: :thumbsup!:

Hi Trev

The denso and hks are different.We use the hks on all of our cars and they are fantastic. At that power we would recomend hks heat range 7/8.Are you looking to up the power much more?

HKS plugs are great we use them on all ours, and we sell Denso, HKS and NGK

For that bhp I would recommend 8's (HKS S45G's) and if you are going to be increasing the power more even 9's ...........

These are In stock and available 24 hr delivery.

I used to use the NGK BPR7ES plugs on my old setup when it was making 350whp. The NGK's were an inexpensive plug that I changed out on every oil change. Now that I am rated about 150 wheel horsepower more, I switched over to NGK BPR8ES plugs.
