£45 approx IIRC? Might be cheaper from a Partco type place - more like £35-40.

general consesus seems to be to stick with the standard platinum NGK's on a standard turbo, minor mods go one range colder i think (6-7)

NGK PFR 7B is what I use and am happy
They seem to be holding together OK when I last looked

From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?

John, Secret Agent Man, how much did you pay for your 7B's?
believe these are iridium tipped rather than platinum?
thanks

david, places like partco etc can all get them. halfords sell 6B's, so can probably get 7b's too.
