I want to hear from someone using this engine what Bosch super 4's they have put in it. While researching which one's for my car I found out the 522's are the model plugs Bosch recommend for this engine with the TU5JP being the 510 plug's.

My only issue is when I removed the plug's in my car which were normal standard Bosch they are about a centre-metre smaller than the Super 4's I will be putting in. Now my car does have a small flat spot on acceleration and now I'm thinking this may be caused by the plug's I currently have in. However I don't want to put in the longer Super 4's without checking first for obvious reason's.

Any constructive help is welcome.

Thank's.

FR78 NX is the one

8v and 16v spark plug are not interchangeable, their length is different

Beware..
Non-specified spark-plugs, explicitly and unequivecly by the manufacturer is bound to perform
less than perfect in some aspects, even if you percieve an improvement in most.

Best thing is to go to Bosch on-line part-finder and find the exact codes given by them: bosch-automotive-catal...eCountry=1
