    *correction*

    I have something similar to these, Bosch Platinum+4 but mine are irridium and plat with 4 prongs. I got them from Advance Auto Parts last year for $40 for the set.

        I was always taught that two, three, and four "pronged" spark plugs were just a marketing scheme. That electricity takes the shortest route to ground itself out, and unless all two, three, or four "prongs" are gapped perfectly together, then the spark will just pick which ever prong it is closest to and arc there.

        Just what I was taught in school, can someone back these things up?

        ^^click it or ticket^^

            I agree but that's not his question. He wants to know what they're called, not how much they suck.

              The name of the plug are bosch platinum +4.

              They are really the worse plugs I've ever used. they cost too much for what they are.

                    I would not go to top of the line spark plugs for a stock car UNLESS you want to donate the extra money to the auto store. Regulars are good enough.

                      actually the better ones cost about $1.50-2 more than a base plug.

                      ngk v-power are the best. ill be running them in my turbo setup. i used to have platium 2s and they suck.

                            I personally don't think so. If your motor is basically stock (even with bolt ons), I would stick to the v-powers. They are cheap enough to change every year or two and never really hurt the pocket at all.

                              I had some. They fouled in about 3 weeks. They work, but not well. I could actually tell the difference when I switched to NGK Irridium IX.

                              For an F22A, you don't need fancy plugs. Standard NGK, or platinum... that'll give you all the performance and efficiency you need!
