Well, the biggest prollum with the non specialty app (S4 - Bosch Platin
FD5POR -best but expesive) platinum WR7DP is that the ceramic coating on the
electrode tends to crack with heat cycles, so the spark starts to wander down
the side of the electrode.... Not a good thing, especially since turbo cars
tend to exacerbate this prollum. If you can't run the FD5's go for the
WR7(/6/5)DC, single electrode copper as the best second choice, it has the
traditional beefy ceramic electrode protection.... So, btw, does the
FD5.....
