I use NGK iridium G-force others suggest Denso or NGK copper I would do a dearch on these and you should find alot about the differences and benefits to each.

i like iridiums... with the MLS-copy bar in the way... id hate to have to keep changing them every year.

and you cant always go by what people say when they switch spark plugs...

like "ohhh yeahhhh it made my vtec pop like crazzzzyyyy!!"

reason is because you're going from a dirty plug to a clean plug... of course you're going to feel a difference.

so for u the only advantage of iridiums is the fact that u dont have to change them often?

spark plugs isnt really the way to go to look for horsepower..

for a stock daily driver you arent going to notice that much of a difference... if any... so the main factor in deciding is really longevity.

Denso iridiums have a smaller center electrode than NGK iridiums... and you can read up on how the smaller center electrode has advantages.. but the disadvantage is that it doesnt last as long as the thicker one... which is NGK.

as far as the price difference... id probably stick to NGKs from now on...

densos are double the price of NGKs... and do they justify... no.

FI setups including nitrous... copper or iridiums are suggested...

I use the NGK Laser Iridium plugs (Part number 6741, IFR6E11) only because I can get them for 7.50 instead of 10.00 because I work in an autoparts store, if anyone else lives in the San Mateo area I'll be able to hook them up if they like.

i have the ngk iridiums. i haven't noticed anything super-awesome about them, but if i can ignore them for 100000 miles, that's at least semi-awesome.

Don't get any plugs from Autozone like Bosche or what have you. I put Bosche Platnum in my Integra and they kept fowling out. I had to put NGK in it.
