ngk bkr7eix same plug that rsx type s uses and only cost $6.99 a piece at your local oreillys. or you could go with bkr8eix just depends on what you and your tuner want.

im totally against ik22s cuz the ngk bkr7eix-11's are the exact same plug for half the price

didnt like that plug, if I was gonna use a NGK I use these IFR7G-11KS

those are the plugs i just put in. made a world of difference(with a change to actual good gas=). i do not like the IK22's myself.

i was tuned on bkr9eix's so i cant just go changing to a different plug or else i would see if they made a ifr9g

i was tuned on ngk bkr7e-11 plugs which are basic copper plugs and switched to those iridiums. the plug itself wont make a difference in the tune as long as you have the gap and temperature the same as what you were tuned on. you can gap iridiums as well just have to be very careful.

not so true. i was tuned on iridiums and threw in a set of bkr9e coppers. made 2 runs on the dyno which both showed a loss of 32whp and the plugs were fouled way out. i might be able to get away with switching to another iridium plug but no to a copper. you switched from a copper to a iridium so you are getting more burn efficientcy thus prolly more power and mpg.

An ultra lean burn, probably knocked as well.

possibly a leaning issue like talon said. there is a big difference between copper plugs and iridiums on a tuned car.

Yeah IK22 or IFR7G-11KS, iridium > copper for your setup
