Has anyone out there tried the Denso plugs? is it an advantage to have the tip smaller than the NGK plugs?
The NGK's tip is 0.6mm, Denso's is 0.4mm. Any ideas?

There is no direct part no for Denso to be use for Renault M2... which means u got to Re-Gap it... and I would not recommend it...
I do have some guys I know who use it and complain...
NGK for far no problem

Been using it and sold a couple of it to fellow M2 owners in Singapore... its a 0.9mm gap... more responsive...
Part no. quoted by the supplier (and site) is BKR6EZ for the NGK IX plugs.... can anyone confirm this pls?
Thanks

Hey guys.....
Just changed the standard plugs to NGK Iridium and I can say they do quite a difference on the car's performance.... it feels much better, idling is smoother, and accelleration feels better too.....
While messing around with the car, I also took the bumper off and replaced the standard bulbs to Osram SilverStar. I noticed that I had one of the headlamps loose from the bottom and after re-installing everything went for a test drive and I can say that the small banging sound I used to hear from the front went away. Turned out to be this loose headlamp!
Quite happy now. Any idea if aftermarket ignition coils would further improve the performance? was having a look at these :
