Sparkplugs for a E320.
I need a set of colder plugs for my car as I know I've toasted my stockers from all the tuning on the turbo, aka I gotz misfire
. What plugs are good in this car? Ive heard certain plugs are prone to misfire and others are godly so point me in the right direction.
On a install/removal note, I dont think ive ever seen a european car with such an easy plug removal process as the mercedes M104 powered ones

and pull out a bit of timing.Make sure you replace the connectors.
Keep pushing on,you will get there![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)
you might also want to check out a ngk BKR6ES I think it is about 100 degrees cooler.
visit the w124 forum and find out what some of those old m104 turbo kits used.

oe
called for .032 but oe also had as a backup the 7090 which out of the box is .038 ngk has a performance division might be time to contact them,I would hate to see you nick a piston at .044.Or since its copper close it down to .032
the bosch copper is supposed to be the king plug in the m104,but I forget which way their numbers run to the cold side.So you could also check bosch usa.

Ok so I talked with my subaru buddy and he said that the NGK BKR7E is one step colder than the BKR6ES. They good with octane booster or high octane gas and are good with turbos. My question is what does the absence of the S in the BKR7E mean?
Also I searched up thoes plugs you told me and it seems NGK raises the number on the plug the colder it gets and bosch lowers it.
Thanks alot for the plug numbers man, life saver. Probably an engine saver too since im so impatient.

BKR5ES
is the ngk oem for the m104 so oe to the bosch F8DC0 so the 6ES I mentioned is 100 cooler than stock 7ES might be to cold and pull combustion temps out of range.Go 1 step cooler at a time.Or pull some timing out or get some 103 race fuel.
