About twice the cost of the street plugs.

John,
As a point of interest, (and you may already know this) Bosch plugs for your new race car are only $5.00 each! All 6 for the price of 1 RS plug. Of course, you'll probably never need to change them (usually during the 40-70hr engine rebuild only), unless doing testing with really rich or lean mixtures.
They're also available in NGK and Beru brands.

Check this out, when I replaced the plugs on my Tahoe, it was $160. $20 each for 8 plugs! Wow.
Ford diesel here I come.
