Spark Plugs for the fit!!

hey guys i was searching around for some spark plugs for the fit, looking at the different brands they have available. i've seen a couple that are decent such as bosch, ngk, etc. but there was one that caught my eye. its called: "Pulstar Spark plugs" from what it looks like it gives better fuel economy, hp, and what not. not too sure of it tho. i was wondering if they have a downside to them as well. or if anyone has tried them on their fit. let me know thanks!

Haven't given them a shot, but AFAIK about plugs, they're all pretty much the same, much more because you're going to install it on a Fit. While the claims may be mind candy, you probably won't feel the difference unless you've tuned every other aspect of your Fit's igniting system (coilpacks, wires, etc etc). I can see you choosing iridiums over platinum +2s, or even considering these pulstar plugs, if you drive an RX-7; but a Fit? I'd stick with OEM or similar.

Your Fit is fuel efficient enough, save that premium you are going to spend on expensive plugs and purchase some NGKs and a couple tanks of gas! Besides, you probably won't see much HP gains from spark plugs anyways since it's a 100hp vehicle!

Pulse plugs are proven not to work on the fit. There was a guy on here that got em and he lost HP cuz he dyno'd it on his fit.

U can pickup the OEM NGK iridiums from kragen for fairly cheap, like $10 a plug or something like that. Personally, i didn't like the oem plugs. Now i'm running Bosch Platinum fusions. I got em from pep boys. They make my shitty running fit run a little less shitty lol.

any aftermarket plug that you cant find for the fit look to see if they have that plug for a nissan sr20det. the plugs have the same specs. im running ngk sr20det plugs that are 2 steps colder than stock.
