Does anyone know the spec of the "double platinum" spark plugs that Regal fits. I'd be interested to know the make and if they are a cooler grade (ie harder) than the standard plug?
cheers

double platinum or iridium?
up until you don't modify the engine internally, it's not advisable to install cooler-running plugs.
once you get new cams and higher rev-limiter, you might think to switch to a cooler grade, i.e. from IK20 to IK22 (denso iridium)
iridium sport are quite expensive at 100 euros and last only 10/15K miles....
while reg. iridium/platinum last much longer....
just do not expect noticeable performance gains, at least on the n/a.
otoh, turbos can get up to +5/6hp!
