I've got me a set of 6 Denso IK20's sitting in a drawer waiting to fit. I'm not confident enough to do them. I don't have the torque wrench or anything to do them and if I messed it up I'd be stuffed. Can anyone suggest where and how to get plugs fitted for not very much money? I don't have a problem paying to get them done but I'm a monumental scrooge!

Chris,

Thanks for the offer buddy. I may not be able to make it to JAE which I'm gutted about, I'll find out for definite on Friday but it's looking unlikely. If you had a spare few minutes one of the days I might take you up on your offer in exchange for beer!

Maybe do it on Aug 5th at the meet if you can wait that long, that way we can all watch and have a look how it's done!! All we would need is some headlights that need changing :lol:

Sorry to drag up this thread back up,

I've got my IK22's from America and wanting to fit them.

Just one question, do i need to gap them or are they already pre-gapped?

right guys iv just got some ik22's off ebay but is this suitable for a normal is200 se or not? i ordered ik20 but he sent ik22 and cant be arsed changing them because of the hassle

Hi there,

IK22 are uprated and as such, ideal for supercharger application. It is IK20 which you require.
If you decide to keep / sell, I'll buy two off you. Could you post details on which they are.
