So I went with what they normally used.

Throw away your platinums, and never buy iridiums for your boxster. All bad stuff, I lost the part number for the correct copper bosch plug... I gave the number to afew people here... maybe they can come forward with that number.

I'm planning on changing the plugs when I get my car ready for spring. I want to use the OEM Beru plugs....does anyone know if they come pre-gapped? I hate
gapping plugs.

Even if they come pre-gapped, you should still check them for accuracy. They can easily come out-of-spec during shipping and handeling.

Ahh yes, it was BOSCH. That's what the dealership uses. I was guessing on the brand.
