Wouldn't bother with iridium plugs, I had IK22's but swapped to NGK BKR7E's .028" gapped, 7E's are one grade colder than standard, work great. IK22's are almost impossible to gap correctly due to the tiny tip which breaks very easily.

Backdraft had a couple of LCR charge pipe's for sale BTW.

No idea m8, but I know it pulls over 180g/s though, scaled due to LC sensor in LCR housing it's around 210g/s. LCR charge pipe might be worth it, all I did was get some 2.5" pipes off ebay and create my own pipe run with silicone hoses and pipes. At the turbo end the LCR pipe is a funny size, around 67-70mm due to the daft silencer thingy.
