What spark plugs do Subaru main dealers use
Ive got a hawkeye STI Type UK and before I bought it from the Subaru main dealer they gave it it's 30k service which I understand includes the change of plugs. Does Subaru use good plugs like NGK or something similar? And are they platinum or iridium - which is better? Is there any way for me to tell by just looking at ht leads or top of plug, without taking out the plug?
Thanks for any help.
Matt

Turbos usually get NGK Platinum.
Iridium isn't more durable, but they do have smaller points, which can give a "stronger" spark (higher current). Useful if you are boosting above stock.
Hard to read the code on the side of the plug in-situ.
