Default Changing spark plugs make any difference?

I have a set of NGK TR55s sitting around waiting to be installed. I am going to buy a set of G2 wires to go along with them. I have the TR55s gapped at 50 thou. My question is will they make any difference in anything at all? TIA

I noticed a difference when i put in the TR55's and Taylor 10.4mm wires... Mostly at higher RPMs.. It seemed to rev better in the upper ranges...

Make sure you use anti-seize on your plugs and if you pop up the plastic push tab's on the rear hood seal you won't cut your fore arms up when you change the back plug's. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I noticed a difference when I changed to TR55's and magnacore wires. Seems like response was a little better, and a lot smoother. I'd put em in if I were you. Good luck.
