oh and that small pipe on the metal intake pipe i told the guy to put it there and i dont know why :1 when i first saw it i was like wtf.....

Don't waste your money for iridiums, they are not worth it. Just get colder copper plugs.

Go to a local parts store or check our sponsors to see if anyone has the plugs. If they don't, try the link below. NGK shows $2.44 each but I'm not sure of the heat range.

today i walked into shcucks in hope to get those plugs and you should see the guy's face >>> these guys didnt have a clue about cold plugs so i walked away without em even tho they mighta have them they didnt know what to do to help me, i couldn't go to napa i had a extremely busy day but those guys are usually pretty good at that, at least here lol, im expecting the same out of autozone so im not wasting my time on spark plugs for now.

today i got the 450's...... now i have to wait another week for another day off and get the resistor box i cant do ---- without tuning them anyways, the laptop is on the way and im getting the usb cable off xenocron's tonight, i need to find out how to tune these boys to get them working decently until i can get my wideband, perhaps i can go with percentages...... oh well research time again..

ok i believe that ZFR5F-11 is the stock NGK plug for your car. (i think it may be the same for all D's)
So if you want to change the heat, you have to change the number 5. The higher you go, the colder the plug gets (but that's for imports, i believe that plugs for domestics, the lower the number, the colder, but i'm not 100% sure).

So i'm running ZFR6F-11 plugs, hence, you should pick up a set

Oh and make sure you gap them, they come set at .044 and you should gap them around .025-.030

i dont know if you guys seen the old pics compared to the new ones, one of those pics has the rubber cap that i put in there i'm sure aint leaking boost, at least for now at only 5 psi i had a hard *** time getting that cap in there, shouldn't be any boost leak at all, gauge stays solid at 5psi at wot, im getting the plugs tonight thanks for the info , the laptop will arrive shortly before the 24th that seems like along *** wait

NEVER? is that why almost every factory FI car runs Platinum plugs nowadays?

I admit I dont run them either mainly because my motors dont even last as long as my plugs do. ha

I would never. My Integra had breakup at 12psi until I changed from platinum to copper.
