Damn, $25 a plug. I can change all eight for $10 less than one of them. Must take a little while for them to pay themselves off.

I believe it states "per pair". So $100 for a full set.

VERY interesting. I would definitely like to give those a try. But it will have to wait til after I fix the plenum and replace the exhaust.

Just Put a new set of NGK V Powers and a set of Bosch Wires. Made a huge Difference ...It was idling a little rough before the change....cleaned it right up. Throttle feels a little more crisp....very happy with them.

I've got autolite ap5224 plugs in it right now (damn PO).
Should I get just standard champion copper plugs or truck plugs?
Is there any performance increase with the truck plugs or are they more durable?

^those are the stockers, right?
I am thinking that the platinums are causing my bouncy idle issue.
Besides, the couple I pulled were worn weird...

Default With DUI Screamin' Demon coil

I've got some NGK IZFR6K13 Iridiums in, gapped to .058", and fed by a DUI Screamin' Demon (45kV secondary voltage) coil. They're working just fine even if they are specific to a Honda L engine. I've got only 500 mostly highway (70-80MPH) miles on them so far, and there's not enough color on them to reliably read them. They're working very well -- I'd go so far as to say perfectly, but I might be sporting a bit of confirmation bias.

I spec'd these plugs because I'm not happy with the idea of overgapping the Autolite platinums as Performance Distributors recommends.

And I'm posting this just so that anyone who follows in my footsteps can save himself the bother of searching for a suitable plug to run with that coil.
