If your willing to put out the $100 then go ahead and do it. Then come back here and give us feedback on if you think they are worth the money or not!

I have sent for them, so I'll let you know if there is a difference after I slap em in. I'm all stock so I'll know it there's a difference.

NGK is good. NGK is cheap. Bosch Platinums are better than NGK. Bosch is more expensive than NGK. Pulse is more expensive but probably better. NGK and Bosch are available from any parts store. Pulse is not. My 2 cents (aside: do you guys actually know what .02 cents is? Think about it).

I would put NGK Iridium against Bosch Platinum any day. NGK for the win.

Oh the Boschs are worth the money. They have 4 prongs and NGKs have one. More heat and better combustion. But I can't justify the price tage (they are 5 dollars more a plug than NGK). I had to suck up the cost for my Sil-Eighty because all the store had were Boschs.

The 4 ground straps honestly make no difference and the platinum plugs don't produce the same amount of heat as the Iridium plugs do. I have had them all and spent the money for various types of plugs.

I just read that in the 350z the Pulse Plugs added 10.4 whp and 7.2 tq. So I would say that they help tremendously. That was also on a N/A engine.

They also say that they work well with forced induction engine and the heat is not an issue. So I retract my previous statement that they are to hot for forced air.
