    just get the right one for you engine. the only down side is that you'll have to make sure you reset your ECU everytime you the battery is disconnected since you'll have to teach the ECU to adapt to the plug's characteristics.

    AFAIK, the stock plugs, properly gapped are still the best.

    Some peeps who used aftermarket plugs didnt experience much power difference from using new stock plugs and some even had to retard timing to avoid detonation. If its performance that your after, getting headers and an free-flow intake along with advanced timing and high octane fuel on the OEM spec plugs will be a better option.

    I beg to disagree. I think better because I never experienced msifires even at redline area. If you examine the plugs, you can tell if the burn is good from the color. Timing? ECU's nowadays can easily adjust to the plug's better characteristics. Most of all, cheaper on the long run. I had mine for 5 years - still good as new

    Spark plugs are on a case to case basis..depends on the applied engine really...some gain a lot...some don't.

    I bought mine near Anonas where they sell Meguiar's but as I said it was 5 years ago for P2,500. Not sure if they still do.

    i'd stick to stock plugs. for 2500, you can change them regularly enough to last you 5 years din...

    this way you are assured that they are in tip top operating condition also.

    Ako din stay stock na lang and replace more often.

    Ganun din ang paniniwala ko sa air filter that's why I don't use any fancy high tech intake.

    At least every 5thou km, bago ang air filter ko.
