The copper NGK plugs are all you will need.

Just replace them with every service and you wont have any dramas.

Around $25 mark from memory.

If you're car has been tuned... consensus here is to ensure the spark gap is set at about .8mm. and to save some money, purchase Ford Genuine spark plugs for a BF Typhoon as they are gapped at .9mm from factory. Just ensure they are then gapped to .8mm before putting them into your car....

Replace at around 40,000- 50,000 and you can't go wrong!

Man, I wish my car was fast enough to have a rocket cover ;)

You will need NGK 0.8mm gapped plugs. The part number is: BKR6EIX

They are pricey, but see if you can get them at trade. Retail is like $23-25 a plug, whereas trade is $13-16.

They can be left in the engine for a while without any hassles, as long as the engine is tuned right. I would change them every 25,000-35,000km's to be safe and keep the engine running well.
