I'll tell U tomorrow mate :thumbs: Cecil's still @ Elms Cambridge... although if you read the previous posts in this thread, others have positive results with these + NGK recommend these as an upgrade over the OEM NGK R Platinum :beer:

They certainly made a MASSIVE difference to my car but that was likely down to one or more duff original plugs or coils. Maybe you won't notice anything, maybe that occasional stumble at idle or temperamental running when in the warm up cycle will be reduced or sorted. It's just nice to know that such a highly tuned /strung engine has the best plugs out there fitted. For under £40 too :thumbs:

I'm not connected to the seller in any way either :hahaha:
