I would check on the injectors first. But then yes I alaways use a c delco over bosch, but thats just my personal preference.

For what its worth....I thought I would try those plugs out so I bought them instead of the normal NGK brand I've been using for 7 years. My engine, for some reason, would barely run. Very strange. I took them back the same day and got a refund, I said they sucked or they were bad. I bought some NGK's and things were normal as always.

NGK TR 55's all the way.

I will never use Bosch plugs ever again.....I always seemed to have problems with them. NGK or AC Delco worked much better.

You can't change injectors and drive it without a tune.

He is right..take out the injectors and put the old ones back in drive to where it is going to be tuned and then install the new injectors and get your tune..

also, Bosch o2 sensors DO NOT work on my car for some reason, the car runs like ***. Put AC Delco's in and its perfect. Go figure.
