[QUOTE="cvkit17, post: 1064276682, member: 131276"] My thinking is different. As I mentioned, I don't install the iridiums for performance. Any added hp or torque would just be a bonus. Normal ori spark plug cost around 30 bucks and iridiums 150 bucks. That's x5. Lets say we change our plugs every 10,000km. We will equal the iridium cost after 5 changes I.e. 60,000km (add the 10,000km of the new plug after the fifth change). Iridiums are said to last minimum 50,000km, max 100,000km. Bro Izso tried and got around 80,000km, means 20,000km more than using normal plugs. And we get smoother acceleration. So why not? Kinda worth it...if platinum can giv smoother acceleration like iridiums, I would use that as it is cheaper hehe Very agree. Prevent is better than cure. It is the mechanic that is important. If he is good, there wouldn't be any problem putting something on and off. Coz when something fails, it might causes other parts to fail too before we realize. [/QUOTE]
