'09 V spark plug question.... My original oem spark plugs came out because I was thinking that possibly they might have fouled out from running too lean from the maf's etc. Couldnt hurt to go colder. On one of them there was a crack forming on the porcelin, one looked like it was covered in white mold. My guess is they they were too hot for what the car was going through but I don't have much expeirance on plug reading. What do you guys think ?

I'm hearing mixed opinions on going with either the NGK TR6's or the iridium version the Ix6's. I always had good luck with the iridiums on other cars but i've heard you can get away with more timing on the coppers...

D3 has some good Quad Tips. D3 is a little expensive, but you get one you pay for. They have a lot of things designed just for the Vs, and they have been coming out with a lot of new things for the V2s.

As far as gains, I never buy spark plugs expected gains. I bought these plugs for my V because they where the best reviewed spark plugs I could find. They are a little bit more money ($15 per plug), but I will send the extra money to get something great, rather then save a few bucks and get something that is good or just ok.
