you really don't need them, just stick with regular platinum plugs, either bosch or ngk.

i dont like the bosch plats period. i put the 4s in my friends prelude and it seemed to run better w/the ngks that were in there before. also, i dont trust them bc when i looked in my parts system at my store, i noticed something i didnt like. for example, plug #4441 (im just making up a #) would say its for vehicle A and that the gap should be preset at .044. then, id find that the same plug # would be used for a totally different vehicle, B, and that it says the gap is preset at .035. well, the plugs are pregapped (all the plat 1s, 2s and 4s) and you're not supposed to gap them and its impossible to gap the multi tip ones anyways. so yeah, how can it be 2 different gaps yet say its the same heat range and everything else as all the other brand plugs for the application? i also had many customers complain, saying thier vehicle didnt run right. dont get me wrong, sometimes they're fine in the right application though but i just dont trust them in every application. so yeah, i always use ngks.

Previous owner had +4s in mine, I had the car for 30k miles before they started to foul under load. Figured, what the heck, and replaced with same. it's been since about 180,000 miles (fouled right after clutch and timing belt change). It's been at least 50,000 miles.
