Default Damn, these plugs made a pretty big difference.

<center><img src="http://www.femalestars.com/RS/rsid-294/gw/Eva_Longoria/images/05.jpg"></center><p>I installed NGK BKR6E plugs yesterday and damn, they are an improvement. I had the 7Es in there previously. Maybe it's that the old ones were in there a bit too long, ( most people say to change every 5k, these were in there for a bit under 5k) but the car feels ALOT more powerful. The boost comes quicker and the car runs much smoother.

I remember posting about the 7Es before but the car seems to be pulling even quicker and smoother now. Is that even possible? I thought the 7Es were supposed to be the better plug? I guess I could be imagining it since there is no scientific way to tell but I swear it feels alot quicker now???

Newer plugs are always better than old plugs.

Default Yah but how long does the 'newness" last?.....

Seems like they would be able to make a plug that doesn't need to be changed every 2-3k (the time that the 7Es "felt" new).
