What are the factory stock spark plug numbers for a D16Z6 civic??

Just wondering cos u guys say to run 2 step colder plugs when boosting.

In the UK the standard plugs for my D16Z6 are NGK BKR6E so what would 2 steps colder be?????

cheers

anyone know the answer to this?

 

Should be in 2 places. Look at the sticker under you hood or there should be a sticker above or below your upper drivers side uppper motor mount.

 

Yeah I know what my standard plugs are im in the UNITED KINGDOM!!! My plugs are BKR6E but I wanna know what you guys in the US have as standard plugs on a D16Z6 and in turn what plugs are 1 grades colder and which are 2 grades colder.

thanks

What the hell!! I was told to get BKR7E's instaed of my 6E's cos i was informed by someone on here that 7's were colder?????????????

Whats the score with this, i really need to know I dont really wanna be putting hotter plugs in my car!!!

I thought the bigger the number the colder the plugs...

 

The bigger the number, the colder the plug, here in the states a D16Z6 runs the BKR5E-11, so two steps colder would be a 7.

 

Hmm interesting that the UK D16Z6 runs a colder (BKR6E) plug than in the US D16Z6 (BKR5E) ???? Very strange, so i spose for my turbo set up I wanna go up two steps to a number 8 plug????

Does this exist??

Out of interest what is the srtandard compression ratio on a US D16Z6??? In the UK it is 9.2:1 is that the same as the US equivalent?
