Well look on the bay of e!

seen some bosch spark plugs says :

The Super-4s outperforms conventional spark plugs in every situation. It uses state-of-the-art 'surface-air-gap' technology, and features four thin ground electrodes with one pointed, silver-plated centre electrode. This enables the ignition spark to choose the best path for reliable ignition, and according to the load placed on the engine.

The Advantages:

Increased acceleration
Less chance of misfiring
Better cold start performance
Increased engine efficiency



now is that true and is it really worth it?

Talk to me! :fcuk:

You need to take what they say with a pinch of salt to be honest. As long as you get the correct spark plugs for your engine, there won't be any difference in performance if the different types are all of a decent enough quality.

Saying that, if your plugs have seen 100,000 miles then you will definitely notice a performance upgrade with new ones:y:

I got some of these just for the sake of it, cant comment tho as I think any difference would be to small to notice.
