Default Denso plugs

Are denso iridium plugs any good in a sti2? or should i stick to ngk? I ask as my m8 runs an autoshop and can get me the denso plugs at a reasonable price.

avoid the Densos, NGK also do Iridiums, or just get NGK PFR7Bs platinums for a safe bet.

[QUOTE=Pavlo]avoid the Densos,

Can you quantify the above? I used HKS iridiums (made by Denso?) in a modified UK car with no problems. What have you found to put you off the brand?
I'm about to install Blitz (NGK) iridiums in my 03 STi PPP.

specifically the HKS versions having a tendancy for the ceramic to explode and wreck your engine possibly. this has happened to at least 3 people on SN, including Harvey.
