What are the advantages of a cooler plug on a supercharged or turbo charged
Miata?  Will it only help reduce the chance of detonation or are there
performance benefits as well?

I replaced the NGK BKR6E11's on my Supercharged '90 with the cooler
BKR7E11's.  They cost $2.75 CAN each from the dealer.  Are the Bosch any
better or less expensive and what is the part number?
