First of all please stop yelling.
Secondly, NGK and Denso (not iridium) plugs are all Honda puts in their cars, so that's what I'll always run.
NGK coppers rule.

Tom, question:
I asked Acura what plugs they use for the OEM ITR. And they said NGK Platinums. Those are quite expensive. So it's fine to run Coppers or the 2-3 dollars per plug?

Re: BEST SPARK PLUGS??? (acuracing)
either:
BKR5E-N-11
or
BKR6E-11
I use the 6E, but I've been told for the JDM ITR engine and for high comp apps, that the 5E works better.
I switched from Bosh Platinum 2s to the 6E plug and GOOD GOD that made such a difference in how smooth the car ran.

indeed running cooler plugs as in 5 (range) helps prevent fouling and detonation on high c/r motor or for prelonged racing conditions.
running iridiums or platiniums does nothing for the motor but prelongs the service interval of the plugs thus used in US/Canada
btw. I have been running champions and ac delco plugs for a while, longest they are properly gapped and right heat range (copper yo!) it will be more then fine
ACDelco Part # 41-602

A cooler plug would have a higher number. 6 is colder than a 5 plug.

Re: BEST SPARK PLUGS??? (Turbo E)
Denso Iridium plugs are by far the best performing plug in the industry. Lower mis-fire rate and highest heat transfer coefficient of all available plugs. I've installed them in well over a thousand Honda and Acura vehicles over the years and have NEVER had an issue. Buy what you're comfortable with, because when it comes down to it, it's your money and your car...

Blake,
I believe awhile back you IM about some spark plugs and I think I told you wrong.
The NGK BKR7E-N-11 (or Honda part#98079-5714J)are good plugs to run on a High comp motor such as a JDM ITR motor.
My apolizes since I just realize this,

Re: BEST SPARK PLUGS??? (SLOAZZ94)
NGK Copper is all you will ever need. Don't buy into the hype of any other plug. Coppers are cheap enough that you can change them often
