Anyone have experience of running a W4 plug instead of the W5 plug?
As most of the G's are modified is it better to run a colder plug?
I need a new set of plugs and would like to try the W4 unless someone tells me otherwise.
I read the post about the rotor arms with W4 - but take it was due to the Resistor not the heat range of the plug.
Cheers
Whats your spec again Shailan?
Doubt it really is needed unless you run higher CR and/or very high boost (Eaton/KKK). That said I have W4CS in at the moment
I use W4's too but it's on a turbo'd setup.

Take them out- I've melted a set of these (without nitrous)
what you running now then yoof?
Running W4's on an fully sorted eaton setup. 9.3:1 compression.
Runs poor when cold but I suspect that is map related. Soon find out when I remap.
Drives nice when warm and pulls plenty hard. Plugs are in good nick.
Again I am running big power and did not need the W4's with 180BHP and the G-lader.
I've got a set of W4's waiting patiently to go in to my final build!! So they are no good for a big turbo spec then yoofy?
I ran nitrous too, that's what killed the Bosch plugs to be honest. Rest of you who aren't running gas should be fine with them.
Interestingly look how many OEMs now use Bosch electronics throughout the car, and NGK plugs 8)
I have no plans to get near nitros so i should be ok on the w4's then with any luck..

Well I have been "running" these since 2003 without any problems
How many miles have you covered in 6 years though Frode :P
We all know you love Gucci suits more than driving Polos ;D
