Spark plug Champion or Denso
if you're gonna go iridium get the denso's because they (denso) have a smaller tip on them allowing for a "cleaner spark" and therefore a greater chance for detonation....less missfires as someone else has already said....I've run them both and I'm very pleased with the denso's
I did not, and bought the Denso Iridiums. I have less misfires and slightly stronger gas mileage since install. Just my experience.
I like the Denso 3008's I've been using for a couple years now in my turbo.
im using the denso 1k22 great plugs for ko4
I installed the Denso Iridium IK22's a couple of weekends ago, and i love them! They are 1 heat range colder than stock, i changed them out at 30k... The stock plugs were definitely gone, installation took 1hr. After i changed them out, the car ran tremendously smoother, and the car seemed more responsive all together.
After I replaced mk Denso Iridium IK22's with the bosch coppers the problem disappeared. It looked as if the electorodes on 2 of the Denso's were oddly eroded and were probably causing a misfire.
I was useing the Bosch +2's for about 4 months and switched them out for the Denso Iridium's, could definitely tell a difference.
I too happen to have the champion plugs that iceman has. Happened because Murray's didn't have the dealer only replacement plug and couldn't get them. I had no choice because the stock ones were blacker than my tires. They rev just fine and seem to run just as well. I was told that a long time ago champions were known to become permanantly stuck in the block though. I plan on changing soon just in case that rumor is true.
STAY AWAY FROM CHAMPION SPARK PLUGS they tend to have a insulator cracking problem
Just be careful with the Denso plugs. Denso has the gap specified incorrectly in the database so the gap is larger than they should be. It'll run but my cause to long term problems such as coilpack failure.
