[plug1971]

Hi guys,can anyone advise me on good spark plugs to put into my mivec?
Are they different from front to back banks?

Can i use IK22 plugs for all 6 plugs?

Thanks for your help,
Neil

Denso Iridium's all the way. Camskill gots them.

all the plugs are the same fitment, longlife plugs are recommended for the rear bank as they're such a pain to get to. better to have all iridium ones, Denso ones are said to be the best.
There's a guide to fitment HERE

Personally I'd go for NGK ones. The whole set of 6 are iridium unlike the set of denso, 3 are iridium and 3 are normal.
NGK are better value too. Denso plugs are known to chip and brake apart in the combustion chamber but I think that happens more so with turbo engines.

Here are the ones I'd go for

That's simply untrue. the camskill price is per plug. all 6 are the same.

Sorry, it was somewhere else I seen them sold as a set like that, 3+3. Must have been ebay.
Still £42 for 6 NGK iridium plugs from camskill is well good! Thats £7 per plug.
Much better value than buying 6 single one for nearly £10 each

I have iridiums in the fto .. and Im a happy chappy....

I upgraded my rear plugs from ngk double platinum to denso iridium I22 recently. I upgraded the leads as well to Magnecors
Difference was really noticeable in the sound of the car from lower revs - really impressed.
They were due to be replaced though and hadn't been done in several years.

Are there gains to be had from Magnecor leads?

[Kace]

I would say that actual gains are negligible - but couldn't be sure. Very easy to change along with the rear plugs though.

Thanks Guys for your replies

Assuming the leads are in OK condition, you won't notice a difference. If one or more lead has started to break down then you'll notice a drop in performance and erratic \ lumpy idle.
