Nope, use either Copper core Champions or NGK V-Power plugs. all others are a waste of money on a stock engine.
I prefer NGK myself.

Normally I use NGK, I was interested in the design of the E3 plug. The makeup could make sense.

There is a thread over in the 2nd gen some guy says they work really well. I don't have them. My dad just got these pulse plugs there are claim better mps than any other plugs out there on the market.

I read the article in the other forum. My interest is in the design in the plug. In all reality if it does cause a better spark because of the design it has to work better. Correct. So this could be a better plug to use. I have used NGK but maybe we are all missing out on a good product.

yeah, but you have to take more into account than just the spark. you have to take into account how hot the plugs run for one.
