Best Spark Plug for Non SC'd Application

[dpotter]

I've seen mention of the Motorcraft but wanted to check if there was a preferred plug for performance. I only have the Lidio tune (93/3.55's) and JLT so no real mods...yet. Looking forward to the day I need the NGK's on the MM.

Any opinions are welcome, thanks.

It's really up to you, if having NGK's installed make you feel better then go for it. Some people swear by Motorcraft. Just don't get Denso's they are costly and not worth it. I've always used NGK plugs in my cars cause they work well, good value and haven't given me any problems.

I put in NGK TR6IX plugs cause I wanted a stage colder plug for my tune.

I use the NGK TR6's in my pullied '03 Cobra. For now I just want a good performance plug for the mods I plan to run until I get the blower, will be at least 8 months if I'm lucky until I have the blower.

Thanks for the info and the tip on the Denso's.
