Spark Plugs
Okay guys... When I first changed the plugs in my car, they were all "trailing" plugs, in all four plug holes. The car ran perfectly like that. What would you have expected? Would someone do that on purpose? Which is the hotter plug?

I covered this issue this weekend with my friend, I run all leading Plugs in my car the only diffrence between the two (leading and trailing) is the amount of tempature it can withstand, The best plugs in my oponion on the market can be easily found at NAPA autoparts
They are The NGK Platnium plugs with a life expectancy 60,000+ the sku or model number is something like nur9EQP P-signifying the Platnium aspect, the only cost difference between the non-p and the p is like 1.83 cents a plug. 1.83 cents isnt that much of an increase so i would suggest the Platniums. The total cost comes to like 38.64 for 4 of them that is with 6% nc sales tax, if i remeber correctly
I hope this helped you out

well lets see mr. genius glenL the price of the non-platniums is 1.83 cents cheaper like i stated, why that concept is hard to grasp is puzzling even to me. *playfull thumps GlenL on the head*

Most FC's will run fine with all 9's.  In fact, I recommend all FC turbos to run all 9's.  The 9's (in the leading holes) will last a little longer than the 7's.

Napa Auto parts chain here in California has the NGK plugs for usually less than $5 each... not almost $10 each.
Sure you weren't buying the NGK Irdium plugs... those are usually around $10 each.
