BKR8 is actual updated heat range, 7 was 200-2001 and was decided to warm of a heat range, I'd get Iridiums I have a set of BKR8's if you want them shoot me a pm, I'll sell them to you cheaper than you can buy anywhere.

#7746 FTW - NGK's upgrade over their own OEM plug. You get an iridium center electrode and a tapered (less shrouded) ground electrode for the same price as OEM.

Are you referring to Denso iridium or NGK? They are very different.
