I had the NGK TR55's recommended to me by a tuner. I'll be going with those when I change mine.

NGK TR55's and MSD 8.5mm wires, plus Taylor Fire Sleeves. I know, I Know...didn't need the sleeves, but they look cool between the header pipes.

MSD super 8.5 and AC Delco Iridiums worked great for me (and not all that expensive either).

Unless I am reading the rockauto website wrong I think you are only getting 4 plugs for the $24.88. It lists the plug as $6.22 sold only in sets of 4 but I think it is $6.22 per individual plug.

I am looking to change my plugs come spring and have been keeping my eye out for a good price on the NGK IX's. Most places I have seen them around $6-7/plug.

If you are getting 8 plugs for $24 let us know. I'd order them at that price now.
