Doing a quick internet search on plugs and colours, a white-ish spark plug could also mean a hot running engine. I have just a tad of whiteness on the plugs, but the car was heating up recently (bad thermoswitch) for a while (~1month).
Anyways, it could also mean that the spark plugs are "too hot", i am running the WR7DC, would i need to run at say WR6? does the weather effect the spark plugs (it was 95F a couple of days ago).

Nippondenso Iridium is best for our cars. If you have some missed sparks it will disappear with this plugs beacause they deliver moore energy. This has been verified by a friend of mine that runs engine dynamometers all day long and who works at a shop that builds many of Swedens performance engines. He also runs tests for one of Swedens two car producers. The Nippon Iridium also delivers a few moore % in power compared to the usual Nkgk and Bosch he said. I had earlier some missed sparks at high boost (>22 psi) and high rews (6 500->), this disappear with the Nippon.
Stay away from the Platina plugs!

Dam NAPA guy. i hadn't read this thread before. I was in a NAPA yesterday to get some vacum line and decided to get some plugs. I asked for NGK's with one heat range colder than stock. I havn't installed them yet. Just looked at them.....bpr5 not 7. Gotta go back now.
