Actually NGK's are the plug of choice! The problem is that they probably were not gapped right or they just needed to be changed. You should be gapping at .026 - .028", depending on boost.
Really?!! :confused:
I will recheck them because I still have them in the box. But I am running stock boost so what would the correct gap be?

Rechecked them
The book says that the turbos should be gapped at .032 I checked every one and thats what they are gapped at. Should they be gapped at something else?

NGK BPRES6 or whatever are the plugs you should be using. Gap them correctly as jet said because you can get spark blow out. Don't get any Vpower plugs either. Make sure there is no number like *-11* after the main code. Also, make sure the number in the Part number is SIX, not Seven. You don't need that change.

Ok I am sorry If I had offended anyone with my NGK bashing. I should have done a brand check here before I posted anything. However I the three people that were helping me were giving me greef about having them in there. They fouled, they said that they don't work because they foul so I believed them.
However if you say that they should work I am willing to try to make them work because the person who bought the car before me replaced them not that long ago, however looking at the plugs I wonder how long ago that was. So maybe they just needed to be changed...??:confused:
Looking at the plug the they are the NGK R BPR6ES and they are gapped at .032 which thats what they should be at right?
Again sorry about the NGK bashing:( don't want to make enemys just yet:D

Yes, that's the right plug and gap that you want. Perhaps they fouled out due to other reasons, which made them run bad. I'd advise to go get some new ones in this case, they're cheap enough to where you can replace them whenever you want, right ;)
