Thanks for the info/hints. I figured there had to be a regulation on this since I'm so nervous about getting it done sooner rather than later.
I have a set of platinum plugs to install. Why do you say the coppers?
Thanks.

Because platinum plugs aer not recommended for Turbocharged cars. Yes, you can find people using them with no problems (yet) and yes, lots of manufactureres sell them. The problem is they use a smaller, hotter element to promote self-cleaning and long life. This hotter element can cause preignition (knock) so it's best just to use coppers and chaneg them more frequently. It's easy to do on our cars, so why not?
