Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

Running 7psi standard all round?

best plug?

also not just the type but also the make, not heard good things about NGK so is there a better alternative. ive had a few dodgy NGK plugs just lately that havent lasted long.

NGK BPR7ES is what I would use.

Precious metal plugs for the most part are for longevity. Not really worth the extra cost especially when plugs are so easy accessed on a Mini.

But for OE that may not get changed for say 50k, and must meet silly emissions over that entire time etc....precious metal plugs are required.
