so i noticed when i went into performance improvements in guelph the other day, my buddy jay tried to sell me these E3 spark plugs LOL...
now i have seen them on tv, i have heard of other people using them and they sure have put a lot into marketing them, now what im wondering is, are they worth dropping 20$ (my price) on a set of 4 to give em a test run? i currently have bosch and i swear they suck, i also really dont feel like going auto lite cheapos or motor craft.
opinions? anyone used em yet? any stories at all?
im really considering grabbin the set he has there...

seen'em on powerblock apparently they're very good at reducing NOX gases and improving hp/tq and some other junk, granted on a 4cyl motor it might only be 1hp at best if anything but still.
Little bit of show, little bit of go.

well i have autolite 103's that i bought for nitrous, but i have been reading about the autolites a little and apparently they have cheapened up their plugs. Im going to pick up a set today and see how they go. definately never buy bosch again, atleast for a focus. they suck @$$.
ill do a write up on my findings with these plugs, with fuel mileage and general feel of the car. so far i am getting roughly 8l/100km with my lead foot and tuned to 91, mixed city and little bit of country highways. lets see if it improves anything lol
