COPPER > IRIDIUM in subarus always 

 

NGK platniums are great, they last a long time even with a built motor, $20 each is better than your motor leaning out!

Swapped for good old copper and no issues since

Iridiums will wear out even quicker in a boosted car, boost can blow the super thin tip of while it is still red hot

What are the genuine Subaru ones? I paid some stupid amount at Subaru in Parramatta a while back. Just checked the invoice, no plug type, but they're still listed as the plug to suit the 1992 RS Lib. LOL

Just for FYI what's the cheaper alternative which is proven?

NGK's  Bkr6e gapped to 0.8mm for turbos

NGK's  Bkr6e-11 gapped to 1.1mm for non turbo

 

Both are about $5 each
