    Dont use bosch plugs in a honda..... always use NGK plugs, and dont use platinum or laser plugs on a boosted motor / or with nitrous. You should be running a colder heat range plug from NGK

    NO!!!!!!!!!!! Never ever ever run platinums in a boosted engine!!! Put OEM's in if you need to. Get NGK IX they are 1 step colder. Platinum plugs are MUCH hotter than OEM's.

    what you need to buy is NGK 7s, no iridium, no platinum, no Bosch crap.

    Go to Advanced Auto Parts, ask for STOCK GSR spark plugs, then tell them you want 2 STEPS COLDER. WHich would be 7s

    YOu need to gap them around .028-.032

    Also, if you car is not tuned, thats another HUGE problem, you might be running way too rich. What engine managment are you running?

    NGK BKR7E is what you need sir, they cost like $1.50/each and gap them to what Mr. Kidd said.
