...ONLY use NGK-plugs. Do you have Direct Ignition on your car (I believe you do), then it should ONLY be "resistor"-plugs aka NGK-R plugs. I've read over and over and over again, about people having ignition probs, accelleration-probs a.o. These being solved by changing to NGK-plugs. I follow the BB from the Swedish Saab Turbo Club. There one can REALLY learn how much the right plug and/or leads can mean. Unfortunately it's only in swedish. Also, I called Bosch last year to ask about using Super4 plugs in my Saab. They told me that they didn't make them for Saabs and probably wasn't going to, as the representation of Saab on the carmarket was too small.
Remember, that the entire ignition system is to be seen as one complete system, where the individual components are made to fit together to function properly. The plug is actually a resistance to the system. this resistance has be to correct, to function properly. The right type of plug for your 9k turbo (if with DI) is NGK BCPR7ES-11. The 11 is the correct electrode distance in millimeters aka 1.1 millimeter, +0.0/-0.1.
Use NGK's and be free of upcoming trouble.
Cheers!
