My stock ones were NGK (normal not platinum). Then I tried the Bosche +4 and didn't like them that much more. Now I am running the Denso Iridium IK20s which I got on that group buy. Haven't raced yet, and found out from my tuner yesterday that I could have saved $15 buying them from him. Racing Friday and will let you know.

Yeah he has them......Basically instead of the regular ignition box most people have that has to be cut in to the wiring harness,,,the plasma booster replaces your stock coils...takes about 5 min to install and just as easy to unstill when taking the car to the dealer......If you can change your spark plugs you can install theeez.......

I tried the Bosch Platinum +4 and think their fine. My stock ones were NGK platinum. Fo Sholy though the Bosch made a difference to me.

depends on the brand that you buy. they can range anywhere from $1.00 - $20.00 a plug.

Thanks. I'll be looking forward to hearing how you like them.

By the way, if I decide to go with the Bosch Platinum +4 instead, where is a good place to get them from?
