QUOTE(sleepwalker @ Dec 6 2011, 11:02 PM) I wasn't referring to second engine and second turbine.. both are on different cars. Did 120k km for previous car before selling and 150k km on current car. Both on same engine and turbine. Oh! sorry, I was replying to you that mine is daily ride also, and on second engine as the timing snap on first engine, then recently after 9 years the turbine failed also...

Better give me the series number  They should be able to tell you if they are Bosch dealer. Anyway, for Bosch the heat range is reverse. Jap plugs like NGK 5 - hot, 7 - cold, meand bigger number is cold Bosch 6 - cold, 8 - hot, means bigger number is hot

Well certain engine are designed to run hot, so they use cold plugs. The plugs helps to cool the engine. Or if running more on highway, cold plug is used. Town driving usually hot plugs are used to help complete combustion. Overall just follow your car manual recommendation on the plugs. I posted the hot and cold just for your info because you want to use Bosch and if your car is running on NGK number 5 plugs and the Bosch dealer gives you a Number 8 Bosch plugs you may be confused. So now at least you should know NGK 5 is Bosch 8....hope you understand up to here?

Cold plugs drive in town may build up a lot of carbon if the combustion is not complete. The number are just for guide in changing from NGK to Bosch. For Denso they use 18, 20, 22 and so on. Smaller number is hot, bigger is cold.

plugs won't give extra power, it will give better sparks which in turn give better combustion and helps the flows of engine operation running smoothly.
actually such information (ie. how thing works) can be easily obtained by just googling.
