Question Best Spark Plugs

I have a 01 Screw. I was just wandering what would be the best spark plugs to buy. I have installed a K&N FIPK and a Borla Exhaust. Planning on more mods. Anyway what's the spark plug of choice amongst you guys. Thanks for the help.

I'm sure if you search here you will find a lot of opinions. It seems like most like Motorcraft or Autolites. I hear the bosch don't work to well.

I agree myself the bosch plugs suck, I have tried them and the electrodes seem to burn up in fuel injected vehicles.
I always use autolite or Motorcraft they both are about the same thing, I also like NGK's.

I never was very happy with the stock Motorcraft plugs. Only the electrode is platinum plated, and the rest of the plug will rust/corrode into dust. Not exactly the hottest plug for cold weather starting either.


Had I taken the advice from the guys on this board, I would have never tried the $2 Bosch Platniums. But, I took the advice of the local Ford racing teams and went went the Bosch plugs. The truck didn't run this good new, and it starts instantly even in sub-zero weather. They also seem to keep the deposits down in the EGR system as compared to the Motorcraft plugs.

What Ford racing teams are you referring to?Do they have an e-mail address? I would like to know how they get Bosch plugs to perform so well in there Ford engines! Maybe you can have them contact me.Send me a private message for my e-mail address.
