ZEX plugs 82003-4

Just want to say thanks to those that recommended ZEX plugs.

I was running the NGK IX plugs and my car ran like crap. These plugs come gapped to 0.35. I dropped them in, went for a cruz to Canmore and back (roughly 250 km) and the car ran beautifully.

All i can say about these plugs is Damb

1. startup = smooth
2. engine idle = smooth
3. Throttle response = Holly Mother of God
4. acceleration from a stop = smooth but quick
5. response between shifts = smooth with no hesitation
6. supper charger response at 2000 to 3000 RPM = impressive and smooth
7. boost gains over IX plugs = was 80kPa (11.6 psi) consistantly to 100 kPa (14.5 psi) consistantly (also see #3)
8. For the price $25 (CAD) I don't mind changing them every couple of oil changes.

These plugs are in my books and are the only plugs for my car unless an act of god happens or the Flux capasitor is the new replacement.

I would highly recommend these to anyone seeing as there is alot of confusion as to what gap is good for what applications and seeing as not every one car is the same or set up the same this is just a suggestion. They worked for me and a few others with similar mods so maybe they will work for others.

I am not sure where they can be found in the states but in Alberta or BC they can be found at Mopac. Just give them the number quoted in the title. I paid around $25 CAD.

Here is the link to the addresses.

Sorry. Thiss post was suposed to be in Performance 2.0. I don't know what happend.

Had them for awhile now and love them.

They can be picked up from the ZEX site.

My bad. I didn't look that far ahead. Better to keep the stockers in.

They do. It says 2.0.
They were polite and left out the part about not being able to put them into shitbox's.
