Default What Spark plug?

Hi peeps,

Currently have a standard 2wd saf cos and would like to know which spark plugs to run and gap.

The car had NGKPFR7B in it when I bought it and these worked well, although it would seem these are the choice for subaru's

And when I went to Ford they sold me AGPS 092C1, which I beleive are Fiesta turbo plugs

Can someone recomend a plug, also one that won't break the bank.

cheers

Don't know exact power as haven't been on rollers in 13 months of ownership.

All I know is the engine is completely standard, never been touched. Although I have a feeling the boost may have been up'd at some point as it feels quick but that might be me as first Turbo car, but feels alot quicker than my fiesta st.

You can use the 071, nothing wrong with them, a very tough plug, you would benefit from some IK27 plugs though, will be that bit smoother, esp if combined with a group a coil, these bits can be got from matt lewis 01922 692424.

071's for me, it will be quicker than the ST can't really compare the two, you may have a stage 1 conversion, this gives around 280HP but alot more torque more importantly. If it runs anymore than 0.7/0.8 BAR boost then this will confirm that.
