just put the bosch double platinum in ($3.99/ea)
to replace the 1yr old ngk copper plugs

noticed the difference immediately
it responds much quicker

just filled up the gas tank
will look into the gas mileage shortly

Just get the regular NGK plugs. The plat4 plugs suck because one spark is fighting to go to 4 diffrent locations makes it a weaker spark.

I will have to agree with going with ngk oem. I have never noticed any gains with bosch plat4s or split fires.

I am wondering if anyine has real evidence that these multi fire spark plugs perform better.

Why did you get bosch's instead of NGK's?

ngk coppers are like $2+ at local auto parts, not much cheaper than platinum

didnt like the hesitation at 2~3k rpm in low gears running with oem ngk plugs

just wanna try something different

thought about split-fire, which i had good experience with, but $5.99/ea.....

so i got bosch, which i also had good experience with turbo and supercharge

engine now runs much smoother at low rpm, and noticeable less hesitation
