Stick to the stock NGK's. No need to spend a lot of money on plugs. Get the standard $2 stock ones and call it a day.

Denso or NGK is the way to go for Honda/Acura. Unless it's a newer car that came with, and is designed for, something special (iridium, platinum), there's no reason to get anything but the cheap copper core.

Other brands and types work, but you'll most likely notice a slight decrease in power/mpg if anything, and w/ NGK and Denso (also Bosch but don't work as well) you don't need to worry about the plugs seizing up in the head, w/out the use of anti-seize, b/c of a coating on the threads.

Not unless you're boosted/built and need colder plugs, your oem NGK's will do just fine. Other than that you won't notice any difference in power because there isn't any.

i'm not going to lie, i'm curious as to how these products work.

we can say OEM for life and such as much we want, but we dont know how well (or poor) these products work without concrete evidence, aka firsthand, personal experience. none of that "i know someone" or a "i read on the internet" speculation.

the evo crowd has seen mixed results with them, but we're not the evo crowd haha.

i bet my 110whp b18b will probably see 110whp with those pulstar plugs in there.
