Default Spark plugs~~~~~~~~~
Alright so i will be changing my spark plugs for the first time.

All i have is a CAI and cat back exhaust.

maybe in the future i will get high flow cats and plenium spacers.

sooo which plugs should i get?

i have been hearing alot about the NGK ones that run 1 degree lower then stock.

should i get these? or OEM?

im going to be purchasing them from a local auto parts store.. so model number would be much appreciated!

thanks!

Get the standard heat range NGK Iridium or Denso Iridium.

Nothing beats a good Copper plug... But they do have to be changed more frequently.

OMFZ, get the splitfire or pulseplugs, they add huge horsepower drops!

Seriously, stick with whatever's recommended which is NGK Iridium.
