OK, i saw in a performacne parts catalogue that you can buy spark plugs that generate a more powerful spark, and i was wondering if this is true? and do they help performance? or are they just a hoax?

A spark plug is a spark plug is a spark plug (minus the heat range factor). An MSD setup will increase your spark a little, but won't add any power unless you have a high-performance engine.

np.. just an fyi if you spend over $6-$7 for a set of plugs you're getting ripped off. Back in my idiot days I bought some Denso Iridiums for $80 because the guy told me they would add up to 10hp..

NGK's are the best imo, but it's the only thing I've ever used (since that set of denso's) and I've never had any problems...

I just changed from Bosch Platinum to NGK last week. I didn't notice any difference either.
