^ NA or Boosted will vary on the plug choice

NA 6 heat range or 7 if high compression
Turbo 7 or 8

AFR is 13 when on idle or WOT

if is HP gains u looking for on plugs waste

cause this one will say one brand and the other .. etc :agrue:

in other words a $500 set or plugs not gonna give u a big jump over if u run $100 plugs for a DD

correct temp and gapping makes the difference

stick to what the manufacturer recommends

I agree entirely, just be sure to check the reccomended plug in your manual and follow the heat range.. Remember heat ranges vary by brand..

Personally, I run NGK Iridium's heat range 6 on the accord
