I couldnt care less, fit the wrong spark plugs & as your mate has found out its caused damage to the engine.
Waste of time Bosch having a free technical website for people to use aint it 
I did post the link on page 1 of this thread.

I used the link and it didn't give me a code for the gti 180 spark plugs (although I am on my iPhone and sometimes it doesn't show stuff up) 
Anyway cars arn't built to run certain makes of plugs they are made to run certain specs of plugs I thought you'd of been smart enough to know that mr BSI on every bike I've built I've set them up to run NGK platinum plugs because they were the longest lasting and can cope with the heat I was putting on them (12 heat) if the 180 is supposed to run 7's then mine was wrong in the first place because when I replaced mine the old ones were 5 and I never had any trouble but the ends did look a bit warped and my mates is running funny so five are obveously a big no no !!

Stick the NGK plugs in then & see what happens if you think you know better
Im smart enough to follow the technical advice of PSA Peugeot / Citroen & not fit NGK spark plugs to one of there products due to the incompatibility NGK plugs cause with the coil packs phase detection system
Im also smart enough to put the correct heat range spark plug in the engine as recommended by both PSA Peugeot / Citroen & the spark plug manufacturer Bosch.
You aint gonna listen to sense so just do what you want.

Change the record, you have been given the Bosch spark plug code for the GTI 180 engine already & also the link to the Bosch automotive website to double check for yourself

Where do you get your information from mr BSI ?? How do you know NGK arnt to be used ?? I'm not saying your wrong I'm just wanting some clarification and yeah thatS the reason I didn't buy the super fours from halfords, because I know the 180 will need a higher heat rating than the 137, but I just thought it might be only one higher, turns out bosh recommend two hisher than the 5's
