   Hi all
   
   I will be servicing my MK2 VTS next weekend, and was wondering if anyone would be able to recommend some decent spark plugs, over the standard ones.

   I also remember reading in French Performance Car mag some plugs that Larkspeed had made/developed (?) that were supposed to be the dogs danglies. Can't seem to find a listing for them though. Iirc, they were a lot more expensive than £45.

   if anyone pays that price for spark plugs they want shooting lol.
   if its a non turbo car do not worrie about spark plugs.
   just get the cheap ones.
   if u want improve the spark then clean up the earth to the engine block will improve the spark more than the differnce between the cheap plugs and the expensive ones.

   Agreed. Turbo cars make the most from a good spark. From iridium's etc. If your going iridium go denso, if your going anything else go ngk. They have both been doing them for the longest respectively

   Unless the spark is more powerful than another spark, and the spark gives a more evenly distributed and more powerful flame propagation than another spark.
