Sounds like a good idea. Have tweaked my PRV up to 1.2 bar today - might invest in a set of plugs. Do I need any special equipment to change them?

yeah i've got a boost gauge,only boosting to 1 bar in 3rd at around 5000rpm,will probably turn it up a little but keep it below 1.2 bar.
no special tools for the plugs,just a t40 torx screw driver and spark plug socket,theres a how to guide .the old one's i took out where black and old looking.well worth doin for the time and money involved
