Spark Plugs

BlueDevil · Post by **BlueDevil** » Thu Apr 08, 2010 7:55 pm

I'm currently using NGK standard spark plugs. These have been working great and I haven't had a single issue with them yet. My car is running a small greddy turbo (T517Z) and has a hondata installed by Lowe Performance. LP ran the car on the dyno with the current spark plugs in it. Before the hondata was installed, I used to run NGK Iridiums, but they had a tendency to burn at too high a temp and blow, so I want to avoid using Iridiums. Does any one know where I can find NGK standard spark plugs or a sutable replacement? Advance Autoparts, Autozone, and O'Reilly Autoparts no longer carry standard NGK plugs.

first of all i run irridiums and make over 400whp just fine.

secondly if youre talking about the vpower plugs then oreilys and advance and such DO carry them.

I looked up those BKR7-E spark plugs. I've found a few places I can order them online from, but I've come across another issue in the process. None of the sites, NGK, NGKus, NGKuk, JEGS, etc, show anything except for NGK Iridiums as a match for my engine. My car is an 04 civic si, with the K20A3. I have no problem purchasing the BKR7-Es, but not a single site so far showing that they'll fit my car, it makes me wonder if I should risk trying them.
