not the last time i spoke to prodrive the said they were using ngk raceplugs cost for cheapest plug £38 plus vat and prices go up depending on what heat range you want

 

so am i advised to change or not to change...

if not to change if you had a budget of
£100 what would you do?
£200??
£300??(sorry tops can't afford any)

(i got an air filter and exhaust done)

 

As you have noted 'bog standard', then it's probably not worth bothering. Spark plugs only need change rating really if you're going to map to take account of the cooler plugs, or if you have mods that might need them.
There's a reason that Subaru put the ones in that they do

 

ok....spark plugs are no.no the reason why i ask is because ..

I can sell you some colder plugs for 300 quid.....garuanteed to soot up and cause misfires within 2k km's running standard boost, lol!

Spend your money on a decent downpipe instead.
