[s-cars] let's talk about spark plugs

[Steve Marinello]

I ran the NGK plugs in the recently departed S6 sedan, with stock engine.
It was okay for the six months or so they were in there, but I could help
feeling that they weren't quite up to the task under high boost.  I would
NOT consider running them in the RS2'ed avant.  Only tried them in the sedan
because I was considering getting rid of the car and wanted a
comparison...and they were SO CHEAP!

Javad at 034motorsports.com sells a copper cored equivilent Bosch plug on
his website, Bosch F6DTC.  I have been using them for about 15K miles with
no problems at all.  I don't know if he has any left as I heard they may be
discontinued but I would check it out if I was you.  I bought 3 sets the
last time for the price of one set of F5DPOR plugs.

I'd stay away from the NGK plug, if the F6DTC plug is NLA, bite the bullet
and get the F5DPOR.
