Default New plug recommendation!

Hey guys, I was studying my vortech manual and it says I need to replace my spark plugs if my car has over 20k miles. What plugs do you guys use? thanks!

I use the NGK step colder--- Personally I use the copper plugs as oppossed to the Plats or Iridiums, They are called the V-Power and I believe they are the LFR5A-11? Granted I have to change them more often but I like that the dont tend to hold heat as long --Its ur call ---If not I would lean towards the Platnums. Go to the NGK WebSite ,,It is very informative.

This is based on the fact that Im Super Charged. NA ---Iridiams or Plats are best

don't use coppers, you'll have to change those every 1-2 months. Go iridium. lxf6aix-11.
