What kind of spark plugs do you guys use for replacement? I normally use bosch in my other vehicles.

Thanks all

no bosch crap.

either OEM NGK platinums or NGK iridium if you ever plan on going boosted.

Im with gomarlins3. NGK 7173 plugs are great and I use them with giggly gas. They're a heat range colder than stock and they work great on NA setups as well. They're copper though so they won't last as long as platinums or iridiums.

I've tried out NGK 7405 plugs(same as 7173, but even another heat range colder) and only noticed they started to foul out after 4,000 miles.

The OEM NGK is: PFR7G-11S

Honda wants: $27.99 x 4 = $111.96
NAPA wants: $12.99 x 4 = $51.96
Advance wants: $10.00 x 4 = $40.00
