Dont be cheap get NGK. I had Bosch for 2 month($38) found out it was bad for my car. Bought NGK($58). My loss was $38 but who cares! Treat your car as you want your car to treat you.

Using search would reveal people with smoothness/driveability problems with any plug other than NGK. Please buy NGK platinum plugs or your experience won't change and will probably get worse.

If you can feel a power difference just by switching plugs, then you've got a sensitive butt dyno!!

There is no evidence that any aftermarket plug provides better performance than the stock NGKs. In fact, I have hardly ever heard of a case where the more expensive plugs outform the normal $2 copper plugs except in service life (for which platinums are useful for).


I stick with stocker NGKs. Works fine for me.

I understand now hehe..

I guess I am just trying to find a plug that'll save me more gas, and I heard Bosch does the job for it, so I got it.

Re: Re: I understand now hehe..

Yippeee, fuel-saving techniques!

From what I've heard, those inline gas saving devices don't do anything but dent your already small wallet

The tornado insert, is that the thing that goes in your air intake and 'spins' the air? Just trying to get some clarification, that's all.

I think the best fuel-saving technique is to remove the 20-lb of lead in our right foot, and voila, instant $ave!

I'm paying the extra $$$$ to keep the lead

means you gotta jump in your Max right now, peel out of the driveway (or parking lot) and get the pedal to the metal!!!

Do it, save your Max's soul ... remind her that she's to be driven!!!

p.s.: Drive responsibly
