Which is better for my engine? I'm doing a tune-up here shortly and I was wondering what the difference was.

Thanks,
Alex Cutrara

For a bog standard 5S, copper will work just fine.

I run NGK iridiums, but I run a bar of boost and expect 60,000 miles out of them.

Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000
Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying.

he is correct. From what I have read in the past, copper is just fine for our engines.

I don't need performance plugs, I can't really do much for performance (mean parents) so I guess copper will do fine.

Thanks for the help.

if you have a GT you need to run NGK platnium and this i say because it is on the left side on the engine on a silver tag also i work at advance and that is the OE recommendation.
