I'm having an oil change on Monday and want to change my plugs too. Are some better than others, or are they much the same? Perhaps you could recommend a brand?

IMHO, Bosch plugs are not all that.Onz wrote:do these plugs perform better than bosch?
If you don't wanna splash out on the Nippon Denso Iridium they do a cheaper Platinum version and if they still don't do it for you, I'd recommend NGK and then Champion...

Has anyone fitted these Pulstar plugs, and what's the cost?

NKG for m20's - guys on a US forum (BEN) did a test a few years ago - no other plug performed better.
