You can use bur9eqp's in any of the four holes.

There are places here in the US that will ship internationally. Hell, I've shipped parts to Ireland before, not a big deal

I only use the regular copper non-platinum tipped plugs. I believe forced induction motors shouldn't use Platinum or Iridium plugs. The tips don't hold up as well in extremely high combustion pressures.

Your experience is the opposite of auto manufacturers and every FD owner I've ever spoken to....

If you are close to stock, stick with stock plugs. Modified cars should be running all 9s or even colder in the leading (I'm running 10s leading, 9s trailing).
