i saw a thread where an EVO's piston was destroyed when the ground for the pulse plug broke off because of their poor manufacturing and quality control

btw OEM is NGK iridium, laser iridium

http://www.ngksparkplugs.com/products/spar...ser_iridium.asp

if you get platinum, you will have to change it at 60,000 miles vs. 100,000 miles with IRIDIUMS

lol

Not according to the Helms and Majestic Honda, the part #s listed all come up as platinum.

I know, but both the Helms and Majestic Honda list a denso and NGK as being an OEM option.

This is where all my quesitons are coming from .

I guess I will just pull one and see what I have and then replace that.

OEM plugs are NGK platinum not iridium. The manual does show denso as a replacement in case you didn't want NGK but another OEM approved plug.
