What are the best spark plugs for a 3SGTE Turbo?

Also, what's a good ignition wire set?


I want to start with some maintenance now that I have some money smile.gif.

Thanks,

-Toni

NGK bkr7e have never failed me. I didn't have any problems with my Denso Iridiums either.

IK22's for iridium or NGK BKR7es for copper. as for wires, just use OEM. its the best

If you can, go for NGK Platinum plugs (I think the number is BKR6EP-8)...slightly more expensive, but much better overall results than irridium plugs and the 3sgte seems to like them better.

BKR6E are stock heat range
BKR7E are one step colder and recommended when running more then stock boost.

spark plugs are good indicators of how your engine is running. its like giving the car a physical.
