Default Spark Plugs

Well I decided I needed new plugs with only 32k on my car. I was reading a comparison about bosch and NGK and decided since bosch was up there with the NGKs I would get those. Not knowing what type to get I was talked into purchasing the +4 platinums. Anyone have these in their car? They ran about $7 and some change a plug. When I installed them I noticed my car sounded different. Maybe its me but it seemed to accelerate more. I think its always like that once you work on your car and drive it for the first time after.

Any responses on these plugs would be appreciated. I'm not quite sure what bosch plugs you guys purchased for only like $9 for a set of 4. Let me know.

Well, I used +4s in my previous car, and they did seem to help. The power of suggestion compels you! I haven't bothered in the Integra, I'm not sure why.

I like my NGK's iridium plugs. I don't even have to gap them. They made my car run a lot smoother. Like if its was new.

The bosch comes pre gapped. You just install those to and they are like half the price of the NGK golds that the dealership tried to sell me. $20 a plug. What are they trying say? I saw some perfomance charts on them and they are pretty much the same.
