Hi Guys, Im using Champion spark plugs at the moment and to be honest they are crap. Im wanting NGK ones but Halfords dont stock them ( only Champion and the Bosch super 4) Can anyone tell me the NGK part number for them as they are on that famous auction site but i need to know which ones..Its a P11 SRI..Thanks..  Graeme..Smile

BKR5EIX-11 are the ones I have just put in mine and are spot on. A bit pricey compared to the standard BKR5EY-11 ones though.

I used the Bocsh super 4 plugs but the engine wouldn't tolerate them for some reason, Whats the difference between the two NGK ones? And whats the difference in price for the platinum ones compared to standard.Confused

yeh paltinum or irideum (not spelt right i know) its whot the core is made of and how conductive it is there is a big price differance
£10 ish for normal and around £45 for a set of platinum ones used with oem ones of decent after market ones will make a big deferance
but like everything in life cheep ones will do the job to a point but expensive things do the job well and larst
but thats just my opinoin Thumbs%20Up
you only have one life. enjoy,

I've tried all sorts of plugs in mine over the years; Bosch Super 4, Champion, Denso Iridium etc and have never found anything to perform better than a new set of NGK BKR5EY-11 plugs (easy to get on the net - my last set came from the bay of e). The Denso Iridiums did perform well and last a long time but were pretty expensive.


My car is a P11 GT with CAI, SS exhaust & manifold, Magnecor KV85 leads, AFPR, ran with 18 degree advance timing and on 98 ron petrol. Plugs are easy and cheap enough to experiment with but I now just use the NGK ones which also happen to be dirt cheap.


Edited to add I do agree that the Champion ones were not very good - or the Bosch Super 4 things. They were pants.
