#9341, "spark plugs...so many choices...."




          

What is a REALLY good plug for a stage II kit. I was looking at the Bosch Plats, and NGK Plats and Iridiums again. What do you guys use on yours?? Any suggestions?

One range colder. They're cheap, too. Like $2 a plug. Never had a single problem with them either.

Doubt it. I don't know the range, but the main problems with plugs in a turbo car is fouling them out while tuning or breaking them from tuning incorrectly. Why waste $10?

Why because if you dont f*ck em up during tuning they last much longer than copper plugs and there's probably something to the smaller center electrode (in theory anyway). I broke one when my wastagate signal hose came off but am still on the same set of plugs otherwise. Once cleaned up they look the same as new. I wore out an NKG copper center electrode (made it V less) in 3 week.
