I see them listed as pfr7/bcpr7. Is there an application? I live among the dudes from Deliverence, and they can't find anything without an application, except, well you know... I checked around the net but only came up with saabs...and this site . I'm assuming they're ngks but maybe someone could give the exact application and part number for a mild tune plug, that way I might actually get the right part the first time, (and still watch out for the cornhole). As always, thanks and maximum respect to the ca board, without whom this question could not be possible.

I was never able to find the pfr7's either. If you're only at a mild tune, I'd stick with the stock 6 range plugs. I'm on high compression, medium boost levels, and was still haveing problems with carbon fouling on a 7 range plug. I switched back down to a 6 and the problem stopped. I haven't had any incresed problems with detonation either.

the stock ones are any of the exhaust side plugs for a 85 200sx turbo, just don't use bosch, i've tried everything from copper to iridium ngks and they all work. i just put platinum ngks in for that app and they work okay. but i change plugs every couple of oil changes. i was looking for mild tune plugs. if you want to use the recomended plugs, they're listed in the stickies at the top of the page, but for posterity, the stockers are...ngk pfr6/bcpr6 gapped to 1.1mm, exhaust side, that's the important part. the pfr7's are slightly colder, I was just looking for the actual engine application or full part number. hope this helps.
