What spark plugs are people using when running forced induction?

What temp plugs + boost/known power figures etc?

Thanks.

I had to check Ormi's forum sig to double check. But IK22's are what most people use when they charge their IS.

Not on an IS200, surely?

Yep. Denso Iridium IK22s are what I ran in my previous charged IS, and will soon put some in my current one come service time. I think you can get them from the dealer, although the cheapest place is probably Opie Oils, with your club discount.

No mate, on a ST205 GTFour, but plugs are plugs, i know all engines get on better with others but as a guide grade 8 are good for upto 2 bar boost or so.

problem is they foul up pretty quick if they arent used hard at all.
