Hot-cold plugs NGK-7 or 9?

I've been having a problem with low idle on my 91 TII and I heard about running BUR9EQ plugs all around. Has anyone else tried this?, does it help when starting?,also does NGK make a BUR9EQ lead plug, or do you just install BUR9EQ trail plugs all around?. My mods include HKS intake, RB DP, FCD, and Maxspeed CATback.

Do you just use trailing plugs all around or does NGK make lead 9 plugs?

NGK specifically made the BUR7EQ(P) and BUR9EQ(P) spark plugs for the Mazda rotary engine.&nbsp All of them are marked "L" and "T", respectively.&nbsp Don't worry about the markings; just use the 9's in the leading holes.&nbsp They won't give you any performance benefit, but the sure do last significantly longer in the leading positions.

Any downsides to doing this Ted? Anything to get a bit more like outta these crazy priced plugs has to be good!
