I would definately go with NGK's . They are recommended from the factory. And they are not expensive the NGK V-Power's run about 1.90 a plug.

i cannot emphasize this enough for anyone out there who is planning on getting quadruple platinum plugs, and extra thick wires, ****you do not need extra spark unless you are running turbo or supercharger AND are adding much more fuel/air mixture.***** ESPECIALLY on a single cam motor

NGK's only for me... for some reason NGK's create a great friendship with honda motors.

you still dont need better spark plugs or thicker wires when going turbo or sc.

the best setup for turbo or sc, is regular old ngks with oem spark plug wires.

Re: plugs of choice these days
you dont need any msd ign boxes like the 6al or anything. some people have run itno problems when using the msd ign boxes, when they removed it the problems went away, it was usually missing.

all you need is a coil, like a msd blaster ss coil.
also when using nitrous you should get colder plugs, you can still use ngks, just get them colder to fit the nitrous
