The Trionic ECU on our cars effectively uses the spark plugs as sensors, which is why you should avoid anything but the recommended plugs. People have had varied experiences with the platinum and iridium versions of NGK plugs and it really does make sense to stick to standard! I also agree with gapping them at 0.9mm.
The Haynes manual does list supposedly compatible Champion plugs but in this case I can only apologise for the errors of my countrymen.
