    Spark plug confusion

    I've noticed that the FAQ section about spark plugs lists two different NGK plugs for a B235R engine:

    B235R (225 hp): NGK PFR7H-10
    B235R (230 hp): NGK PFR6H-10*

    * NGK's website specifies this one for my vehicle, which is a 2003 9-5 Aero. I have a stage 1 ECU tune but I just used "2003 9-5 Aero" when looking this up on their site.

    I'm curious as to what the difference between these two plugs are.

    heat range difference, that's all the "7" plug is colder than the "6" plug....back asswards I know but that's the way NGK does it.

    So I should stick to the 6H plug?

    Stick to NGK PFR6H10 - I have been using since 05 - never had any issues.
