Just wanting to know if anyone has changed there stock spark plugs to a performance plung? If so, which ones did you end up going with, and where did you get them? I have looked around for some and all they have is for the 2.0L and the 2.2L. I know the 2.2L and the 2.4L are the same motor, but one company said that they might have a different seating height. Let me know what plugs you are running (2.4L ) owners. When my intake comes in i do not want to have any cel problems.

I would like to know the samething.

 

not worth it , stock are platimum's

same for the 2.2 , not worth it

the 2.0 s/c needs cloder plugs for higher boost levels

 

the 2.4L might have platimnms as well but when you put more air into the motor and less spark, you will not get the performance out of it like you should. Plus you might have a cel problem. That is why I would like to have some better plugs, like ngk, or hks, or even some bosh 4+

 

Oh god, do not buy platium 4's. Such a waste. Electricity flows through the pat of the least resistance. Meaning its acting like a normal plug only coming off of one of the electrode things. Its just advertising. The platium, the platinum2, and the platinum 4 are the same thing, just look different!!

 

I wouldn't bet my life on that... electricity flows through all paths available.

 

people need to realize changing plugs isnt neccsary unless you go really high n/a tuning or forced induction

 

no man... im in university for electronics engineering and i also work at a patsource (like autozone or pepboys) in toronto. It true...the +4's suck unless your putting them into someting german... in which case just go with the platinum. The other problem is you cant gap them. If your gap is too big and your forcing all that air into your chamber...your gonna have a cylinder not firing every few miles. The best plugs based on OEM style are NGK's. Go either iridium or G-power platinum... Otherwise stick with the AC-Delco platinum. I dont think changing the plug will help performance wise. If any of you are looking for the plugs... come see me at work

cavyman is right, it flows through the source of least resistance...

 

heh... well then maybe you've heard of a parallel circuit before. So you're trying to convince me that if a circuit had 2 resistors of different values mounted in parallel, electricity would only travel through the resistor with the lower value because it follows the path with the least resistance??? I'd get my money back from that university for teaching untruths... Ever heard of Ohm's law? I'm sure you have. Or here's an idea... Go lean against a flagpole in a lightning storm. No worries for you because I'm sure the flagpole has less resistance than your body when the lightning strikes! I work with electricity everyday and would be sad to hear of somebody getting hurt or killed for believing that old wives tale. Sorry for the thread hijack... I just don't like when people spread disinformation that could be dangerous for people unfamiliar with electricity.

 

which part of your message had anything to do with the bosch plugs? im a bit confused with what your talking about. what part of my quote do you disagree with? and for that matter what part of your post had any thing to do with what this thread is about? you are stupid, maybe you should read the thread before you post, retard!


and even so, what part of the +4 has 2 resistances in parallel? yes electricity will flow through all paths available IN A CIRCUIT but IN A SPARK PLUG, there is only 1 pulse of electricity. If there was more, you may get multiple sparks on other electrode but THERE IS ONLY ONE PULSE


IDIOT

 

No need for bashing but the Bosch plugs aren't going to offer anything special. Look for something that will offer better spark. Bosch plugs aren't that great.. I have a set sitting in my cavy and the plugs foul out all the time.. my AC Delco plugs never did

 

this is true, i had a set in my beastly 1988 oldsmobile delta 88 and a misfire developed maybe a week after i installed em, changed em out for some autolite's and problem solved. i personally would go with ngk iridium plugs, but thats just me, but what was also stated. you really dont need any plugs unless you have a strong n/a engine.
