They are good! They will definitely spark better than the stock plugs, they may increase HP a little (max 2 hp)
they will do no harm
they will improve fuel efficiency, if anything.

Good luck w/ the plugs..

Oh, you may want to try searching too for "plugs" or something. There have been many threads on this..

Denso's are crap and will do nothing to help your car. Any performance gain is all in your head.

Read this thread for more info.........

ik20s will definately smooth out acceleration. no hp gain or anything like that, but i threw them in after 15k miles and the acceleration was definately smoother. as for mpg...i havent figured out what is going on with my car.

when i would drive around beating on it in stock form id get 28 mpg.
now i beat on the thing more and i get 35 mpg (always) so i dont know what the hell happened. maybe i just needed a valve adjustment really badly.

CapYoda has a spectacular aura aboutCapYoda has a spectacular aura about
please.

they're just plugs.

please just spend only 12 bucks on a set.

not 12 bucks each.

I've buy lots of useless stuff before.. but I dont think ur particular application (and 99% of the application out there) needs these special plugs.

thanks!

I will not spend money on it then...I always doubt how a spark plug can increase HP....I just don't see it.
