Default What plugs to run 1 bar boost? 98 WRX'

current spec is:

Blitz Air filter
3" de cat downpipe (heatwrapped)
3" de cat section
3" cat back exhaust
Baily Dump valve
Standard TD04 Turbo

I will be adding next week a Greddy Profec B boost controller and a walboro 255lph fuel pump. What plugs would people recommend? I want to run 1 bar or possibly 1.1.

Im not a fan of Denso. What grade or even better which NGK's should i go for? I used BK7REIX on my 300bhp 200sx....but dont know if subarus are the same kind of set up.

Any help appreciated, ta

NGK PFR6B should be fine at 1.0-1.1bar.

However, why not manage the increased pressures/temps better by fitting the '1-level' colder PFR7B plugs instead (I did; so have loads of others) - can only help.

Less than £25 off eBay these days, brand new boxed.
