I have them and 90% of my friends have them..

Out of all the plugs I've tried, those ones gave me the best result..

I have them. I put them in about 1200 miles ago, and they replaced my Bosch plat +4s. I like them much better, as I was getting a strange hesitation around 2200 RPMs that is now gone... They also seem better all around.

I'm probably going to go make a couple of G-Tech runs this afternoon, and though the thing isn't accurate, its precision is way up there, so I should be able to tell if they helped.

i have them for the slow ass accord, but i did not install them yet. i want to do a tune up on my car, and change the valve cover gaskets b4 i put the gaskets in. Also they will work with a msd 6A ignition.

I'm going to be picking some up really soon, along with NGK wires and maybe and MSD ignition kit.

I was reading a dyno article on the plugs a while back and they really only make power on boosted engines, but I'm sure they do make a good difference just in overall performance.

I have Bosch Plat +4 in my 93 Teg i have never had a problem with them. 94_Accord_Ex did you have to gap your plat +4 cause when i bought mine the guy told me that they were pre-gapped and i did'nt have to gap them. I have never heard of that before. I was just wondering whether you had to gap yours or not.

Integra221, yes, the plugs were gapped perfectly. They just aren't built for our japanese engines. Do a search of the site, and you'll find quite a few discussions about them. I'm not saying you can't have good results with them though... if you like them and they're working for you, stick with them. I'd rather have even the stock NGKs though.

MSD has the best wires on the market and not to mention the cheapest.

I just put some NGK platinum plugs and NGK wires and I'm pretty happy.....I definitely noticed an increase in power, but most of that increase in power was probably just from putting fresh plugs/wires in and taking the old ones out.
