Any help would be appreciated..
Car is MY2000 1.8tq tip.. k04 going in today..
Mike at AWE says stock platinum plugs should be fine (ngk PFR6Q)..
Then I know stage 3 guys run platinum with colder heat range (ngk PFR7B)..
I've read all about the advantages/disadvantages of copper ngks (BKR6E and the colder version BKR7E) but I tryed BKR6E when I was just chipped and ran into some problems (rough idling)..
So, what are you k04 guys running? I know the AWE kit comes with Bosch F7LTCR (i believe these are coppers) but these are stock for AEB engine code (according to ECS). So, I'm real confused.. what are the MY2000 k04 guys using out there?
I know Modified is out there and I tryed using your parts list, but it didn't seem to work. Thanks in advance for any help.

for this engine, I've read a lot in the search about the ngk bkr6e for regular k04 and the 7e for the j31 set at .028.
