ok what is the down right best spark plug for my 5th gen? and what should be the gap on them?

 

Well do you want performance or long plug life? Search and you will find the info you need to make your own choice. I use NGK v-power. Some people like platinum or iridium since they last longer. I belive the stock plug is the NGK platinum.

 

i want performance and does anyone know the gap length?

 

NGK Iridiums, and don't worry about the gap. All the NGK's I've seen come pre-gapped at .044, which is what a stock prelude engine should run.

 

k man thanks. cuz im pretty sure mine are fowled and thats whats causing me to bog down

 

i recently checked majestic honda because i was gonna make a order. platinum and copper are the same price!

 

v-power isn't pre-gapped like the iridiums or platinum

 

To OP, make sure you get the correct pre-gap if you purchase platinums or iridiums. You can't gap those plugs afterwards.

 

OK - I'll bite - Kronn - How did you back flip your 98 Prelude S?

 

88 Prelude S

I was cruising at 80 on the highway, hit an oil/water mixture on a curve, rear end started sliding out of control, went backwards into a ditch, flipped backwards, landed upside-down, and slid for 100ft in the mud. The top of the car was smashed down all the way to the top of the steering wheel. I crawled out without a scratch until I kicked myself for only having liability insurance.

 

no, the Iridiums aren't pregapped, I had to use the feeler to extend to 1.1mm

 

Yes, the Iridiums are pre-gapped. Look around and you'll find that to be true. And I sure hope you mean 0.11mm (or 0.044in). Lastly, using a gapper on these plugs can damage the iridium (or platinum) tips, causing poor or no spark.
