I would stay with the stock plugs. Many times i have used the "Better" plugs and ended up frying them. I install the stock ones and they last a very long time.

I have em on my stock engine and i love em. They do last a long time, or @ least i havnt had a problem. I have noticied a slight increase of power, but i also step up my spark plug wires to 7.5mm. The next thing i might get is the MSD coil packs, just cuz there red.

Waste of money IMO- does any OEM manufacturer use them? Spark plugs are cheap in the whole scheme of things, so if special plugs made for more power and better gas mileage, while still reaching the longevity requirements of stock plugs- you'd have to wonder why all the manufacturers wouldn't be using them. I just don't see an automotive manufacturer passing it up- adding maybe $25 extra cost per engine- if that (assuming they get a huge discount from buying bulk)- for a couple MPG better, and a few more hp.
IMO- on a stock engine, use stock replacement plugs- platinum/iridium whatever- put them in and forget about them for 100k miles. On modded, boosted 3800's- I'd go with copper- just the cheap $1/plug autolites.
Honestly, don't waste your money. Its been proven that these are equivalent voltage to OEM- and also that they're less reliable. If you really want red coil packs that bad, paint them.
Heck, I think even the 8 second twin turbo, 650+ whp 3800 is still running stock coils.

HAHA, Yeah, I wish it was really that low. In a few months it will be. As soon as I get my GTP, the monte's getting grounded and getting some MB motorsport drifter's 18" CHROME. The same rims I got now, just chrome and an inch bigger.
