No, I think they are crap. Bosch W7DTC or NGK BP6ET only.

Nope, wouldn't use them - they draw intense vaccuum (they s*ck). Bosch W7DTC.

Default My plugs are in a N/A V8q...

But you're right....platinum 4s should not be used in turbo cars. I've heard several myths...but I dont know the real reason either.

They have a small, very sheilded center electrode. The 7A spit them out in a few thousand miles...

Well, I guess I'll change out the NEW Platinums for the W7DTC. Thanks!
