Yup, I'm serious. Most aftermarkets are junk and not trust worthy.

when i got E85 chip tuned, i upgraded to NGK IX plugs..
the ecu tuner recommanded for higher heat range sparkplugs..😃😃😃
its actually up to you, if you dont have mods you can go for the stock NGK, Bosch plugs..if you have mods, you can go for better or higher heat range plugs..

Just put the NGK IX plugs into my latest car today, a 2006 Yaris with 145k km (around 92k miles). Presumably it was still running on the original OEM factory plugs. Big change. The engine sounds smoother. It starts faster, and accelerates better. You can feel the difference immediately. 👍 😀

now, people who use the single platinum thin wire NGK IX plug do understand they are short life ones, right?

Very true, rabbito 👍. Anyhow, in my case these are NGK Iridium IX plugs. I stay away from copper or platinum plugs.

NGK iridium plugs installed at 130k miles. Pulled out Denso's. I assume they were from the factory. They were in great shape and didn't look like they even needed to be replaced. Replaced them anyways. At 170k now still running strong.
