Bosch Super 4's
Going to put them in when i service it, picked up a set today for my 16v from HalFRAUDS for about £22 i think.
I've had them before in my civic, never noticed much but some people may? I've never had them in the saxo.
Anyone notice any difference with them?
Cheers, Max

Unless they are iridium tips or whatever, cant see any difference, saying that, unless your car is high power, i cant see shit or good plugs making a shit of difference

They are pretty gash, I put the in the Bimmer, cost about £16 for 6 from halfrauds with a trade card. Changed over to whatever the ngk multipoints are called. Engine feels a lot better. Seems to be more free revving

Super 4s are wank, wondering spark, ears failing and falling off, are just 2 things.

Yeah I was going to post this too,
Pretty sure there was a popular thread on here of a Saxo that Super 4's killed an engine.
I'd stay well clear.

Nothing wrong with o.e spec NGK'r plugs unless you are running big power or boost you won't see any gain from uprated.

My vtr engine ran fine on super 4's.
But my 16v engine didn't run right with them.
So I now use NGK
