i know that the iridium plugs have a smaller electrode which have less resistance and the iridium also have a higher melting point. doesn't the NGK have a coper electrode. the only thing that makes the NGK better is the heat range 7 which may prevent some detnation. do iridium plugs come in heat range 7.

not to sound dumb or anything , but what are the advantages of switching plugs on a turbo car?

The BKR's have the V-grooved center electrode, the BCPR's don't.
Otherwise they are identical as far as I can tell.
I prefer the BKR's because of the V-groove.
By the way, why does everyone get the BCPR7ES-11's ?
The -11 means it's gapped .044, so you have to bend the ground strap way over to regap them to .028-.032.
If you just buy the BKR7E, it comes gapped at .028.
