I don't think Platinum is the best choice for boost applications.

You need either the cheaper copper ones or the expensive Iridiums.

Must people use the coppers for the tunning period and once the engine is all set go to the Iridiums for daily usage.

And yes, there are Denso's and NGK's for the 1NZFE in several heat ranges.

that engine would look soooooo sick with richard holdeners intake manifold.

If all works fine and remain some free cash to spend then a custom intake mainfold will be taken into consideration beyond 15psi boost!

BTW I cannot forget about the gauges, exhaust tips and oil cooler ... here are some pics

Yeap, those are the recomended iridiums for the normally aspirated Yaris BKR5EIX.

But for your engine you need to go 1 step colder. Perhaps even 2 steps colder if you are going with high boost (you shoud ask this to your tuner).

On NGK the next step colder would be BKR6EIX

On NGK, the higher the number , the colder the plug. Heat range 6 is one step colder than a heat range 5.

side note: On Denso is the other way around... The Higher the number, the colder the plug.

Those should be easy to find on your local auto parts shop. Just go and ask for Yaris Iridium plugs, and then go for one step colder.

Just stick with either NGK or Denso.

Hey man I checked out a thread on scionlife about the intake mainfold made by user castrex (not sure if is the same person in this forum) and it seems interesting. Do you know if it is for international sale and if it fits the first gen yaris?

Yeah it was me... but If I were you I would not wait for that manifold.

This is been going on for months and months and months...

The company that was supposed to manufacture the intake, scrapped the project early this year.

And the guy doing the design has not posted a thing for several weeks now.

Ok just a thought, so it has to be custom made aswell although still not considering higher boost than the plastic mani can hold, at least for now!
