When I race I run Bosch Super 4 Plugs (part WR78X) The are a high performance plug and I think they cost me like $35 for 4. Runs sweet as with them. Other than that I run standard Bosch Plugs for a 2t. there Is slight difference, But I only notice abig difference in race conditions.
The standard Bosch plugs cost like $10.

I've run Bosch W8DC plugs in my 2TG for years without any problems.
They are not expensive.

I also used to use the W8DC plugs without any headaches. The NGK version would be the BPR5EY which is what I run now and am very happy with. (I am pretty sure the 4M, 5M-E, 5M-GE and 2TG all take the same plug. (althought the 5M-GE has a bigger plug gap)

thanks, ive changed back to the bosch plug, see how that goes.
ive gone thru 2 sets of BPR5EY's since christmas, not from being dirty with carbon deposits, but the electrodes seem to be melting away!

bman,
If you are melting the electrodes you have a serious problem. I would recommend getting your car looked at, Especially to see what its doing under high rpm/load. A dyno power run will let you know this.
