Default Spark Plugs

Hi,

The NGK ones are the "V Power" model and "G Power" now i have no idea what the hell each one means but which would be best? The more $$ one? heh...and i havent really heard abou bosch

which one would you take? keep in mind im trying to get better milage on my stock VX engine. thanks

i heard both good and bad about bosch, so i bought a pair to find out for myself. They were pretty good at first but the damn spark plug would keep poping out of the hole, no matter how tight i tight it, it wouldnt matter.

i got NGK on my B18c1 now and there great. So NGK gets my vote, no hassle.

WERD! Change the freaken avatar before I shoot you!

NGK is the way to go--doesnt matter which one. You can go V-power if you want... so you can yell "VTEC!" haha But stay away from Bosch like a plague just like their damn stupid rubber BOV's. BOSCH CAN SUCK MY LEFT NUT.

I won't run Bosch in my Honda because of the understanding that Bosch and Honda don't play well together. I'm running SplitFire "V's" and they're pretty nice. They cost just as much as the Bosch +4 Platinums. I know you didn't ask about them, but that's what gets my vote. And your avatar rocks!

Bosch is great, but it's well known that Hondas and Bosch don't play well together.
