    NGK spark plugs, whats the best/sparks bad!

    understanding that there are pros and cons with NGK, there are also many differnt kinds with pros and cons...

    which one is good?

    here is a link for the f22a1 motor, they dont have them for the a4 nor the a6 but they are the same any ways...

    im concidering getting away from my bosch platnum and go to ngk possibly gold or v power, some guy is selling it on here...

    i hope to see better MPG....but i still have to check my FPR..

    any ways thanks for the advice in advance
    What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

    You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

        NGK Iridium, or NGK Double Platinum :TU: those are two of the best sparks they make, neway did you know that aftermarket wires are worse than stock? its been proven.. i lost the link but its somewhere on this site i dont feel like searching now tho.

          The specific copper standard plug is stated in your owner's manual. That would suffice. However, if you don't want to replace ur spk plugs often, go with platinum or iridium, it's your call & how much you want to spend. They are more expensive.

          Copper is the best conductor of the three, the other ones just last longer.

            I have the NGK Laser Platinum plugs (F22a1) stock#PZFR5F-11, you can run the PZFR6F-11 if you do alot of highway highspeed driving. With the Crane 11.5mm plug wires and the NGK plugs it feels like more throttle response and definitly more milage, like sometimes 400 plus per tank 93octane goin average of 80mph, I used to work on the road and I was'nt leaving my baby behind so I drove it from state to state cruising behind the dually pulling a big ass trailer. Anyway NGK for sure....................

                  how about the different ones...like vpower which has a v split in the electrode and the other one that has a really fine electrode?

                  i found that kregan sells ngk...nice.

                    The Copper produce a more vibrant spark which is what you want the Platinum just doesn't where away as fast as the Copper that's why they last longer.

                    I run NGK #R5671A-9's on my car.

                      Did you take chemistry in high school? The order of progression from best down goes: Silver, COPPER, Gold, Platinum, etc.... So listen to peopl when you don't know what you're talking about, K?

                          Well remember my setup isn't a stock setup that's why I run that plug. I have a high (very high) energy ignition system, My car runs rich (about 12.8:1), I always run super 93+ octane, and I run Nitrous so that's the plug that's heat range bests suits my application.

                          If your engine is stock with nothing much done to it then running the recommend factory plug is best.

                            Alright, you are a fucking idiot. How about YOU take a lesson from someone else ... look what accordztech did he actually looked something up before talking out of his ass like you. Not only did I take chemistry, but I took a year of electronics in high school too. Why the hell do you think those spark plugs cost more?? The same reason rockets, high quality audio/video cables etc. cost a lot to make... they use metals that are of higher quality you douche.

                              Okay fucknut... Listen closely, because I'm only going to say this to your lame ass once. Read this table on electrical conductivity on MIT's website. Periodic Table It clearly shows what I said before to be true. The higher the conductivity value, the better the conductor. Get it? Notice that Copper (Cu) has SIX TIMES the conductivity of Platinum (Pt). Don't argue with me again you imbecile, or you will look stupid, AGAIN.

                              BTW, high quality Audio and video cables are made of PURE COPPER. They may be Gold Plated, but that is only to reduce corrosion. Judging solely on the examples quoted above, you must not have paid attention in class. Chemistry, Electronics, or English. Learn to use some grammer, spelling, and punctuation, and perhaps you might have a bit more credibility in the future.

                              AccordZtech, I know you were trying to show a table of some sort, but I believe that is was labled wrong. It also doesn't show Copper, and must be something from a plug manufacturer's website.
