i'd get the PFR7B's - they're better and the supplier i went to was only charging a tiny bit more

the 7's run cooler i think....

If your car is standard then use the 6's. The 7's should only be used on modified cars running much more power.

Agree with Martin on this one.

A standard engine works best with the 6's, so unless you are running more boost/power I wouldn't put fit the colder 7's
