yep id run BCPR7ES-8s or possibly even one colder BCPR8ES-8s for those higher boost levels.

I think std 20v gap is 1.1? but prob best to use .8 on turbo application so thats what i've recommended above.


These are what I run on my 4agte

Is the detail of the spark plug area "hole size and depth" the same between the 16v head and 20v head?

Are those ones you stated NGK?

As above, BCPR7ES should do the trick. Never had issues with them in my 4AGTE. 4AGEs are of heat range 5 (I think), 4AGZEs are one colder at 6 so go one colder again with 7.

EDIT- Yes those are NGK codes and they'll be fine for 20V or 16V

actually good point. i think the 20vs use the BKR std as opposed to BCPR. Therefore if there is such a plug go for a BKR7ES-8

In my 20V turbo I use the standard NGK plug listed for a 20V but the 0.8mm gap ones not the 1.1 listed.

From memory they are BKR6EP.

I run 18 to 20 psi and do not have a problem.
