These things cost at least $30 per plug!

These are only $44 for a set of 4 not $30 a plug. http://66.216.67.51/product.asp?0=213&1=273&3=408

Tried the NGK on a 92Honda civic. I got lots better throttel responce for the first 5 months or so.. I think because the motor has high compression it kinda messed the effect up after a while. Yeah but while they were on there for those months they were nice. The HP increase was about 7 IMO.

Thanks
TRU
