As a mechanic, i would have to say NGK because it for Imports. I would have to say V-power plugs. Unless you have some heavy mods done in motor. List up what you have done on engine.

Just as he said. Use the factory recommended plugs, you will get the most power out of those. It's been dyno proven. Always stick with NGK, even with mods there are certain NGK plugs that will be best suited for your application.

accually you shouldnt use plat plugs. With my experiance, plat. plugs are used for cars boosted or super charged. If you use plat. plugs in your car running all motor it will run poorly. Get some V-power or Iridium.
