HKS lists this as a plug for the e46 M3, some Audis and VWs but not for a Mini Cooper. Why did you go this this plug?
I'll double check the model number tomorrow. I went with this plug because my local shop here in the Philippines recommended that. The car is running fine so I dont think they installed the wrong plugs
I have been reading up about the HKS spark plug. It looks similar to the NGK and Denso Iridium plugs we see a lot more here in the US.
I did find a reference in a vendor site that cross lists that plug to the R56 MCS but it is not on the HKS site.
I believe NGK is the one making the plugs for HKS. The ones installed in my unit is colder than the stock plugs. I feel the engine runs smoother after changing the plugs. Specially on low RPM
i can't find it locally it hong kong to purchase it.....

No idea about the Denso's. Why don't you try contacting them, either via phone or e-mail? You probably could have had your question answered by now. It took about an hour for Bavarian to respond back to me about the JCW plugs.
The NGK's for the Cooper S and JCW (second gen) are indentical.
Also, what are you trying to accomplish with the colder plugs? Are you turning up the boost or have some serious engine mods? For a stock motor, the NGK's are fine.
the JCW sparks are 1 degree coulder, a repeat how about this denso?? are coulder than ngk????
They are NOT 1 degree colder.
The Cooper S and the JCW share the same exact plugs. They were 1 degree colder on the R53 JCW, so make sure you're looking at the right things.
