The plugs themselves will not give you more boost. Although it is reccomended that you use a colder plug(7s) when running higher boost. If the car is struggling with the 6s, misfiring or being blown out then its possible the ecu is pulling boost off

I wouldn't dream of putting rad weld in my car mate - I was a bit concerned using it in my mini 12 years ago!!
