[s-cars] Spark Plugs

[brian hoeft]

the only other option i know of besides the f5dpor is the 'bosch racing' 
f2cs(very difficult to find, expensive and only recommended of you have 
detonation problems not being caused by anything else) ... i stopped using 
the f2cs after having to replace them every 3 oil changes at $22or so per 
plug.. and after i learned that hans dahlback DOESNT state specifically that 
you must use them with his programming etc.. be careful who you listen to... 
even if theyre the 'premier' DBR distributor in the nj tristate area,, or if 
theyre acronym rhymes with kayemdee.
 do it yourself, its way easy, follow the torque specs and make sure the 
allen key on the coil cover is all the way down before you loosen/tighten. 
wear fresh undies and brush at least twice a day.
