Standard spark plugs, about a tenner a set. Anyone who says they spent £100 on a set for a n/a engine and it changed their life is lying  ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

No idea about the throttle body I'm afraid, not my area of expertise; I'm only really good at spouting my opinions as if they're objective facts. £14 sound spot on  ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

But yes, cheap set of NGK's will do just fine. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Standard throttle body flows more than enough air until silly power levels.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.
