search at Garage Sales here and ask the seller to post it to you.
cheaper than wasting fuel going round and round asking 1 by 1 shop.

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

Oh! you don't know about Hot plugs and cold plugs also. 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? blush.gif

Looks like you still don't get it. Does not mean cold is better. 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.
