Baush Platinium 4+4 for c230
Just wondering if anyone has tried these plugs for the c230 kompressor. They improve performance greatly expecially on a 4 cylinder with the A/C on.

i was told that the Bosch 4 plugs (which i have used before) really will not make any difference. No matter what, you will only get 1 spark per ignition. Electricity takes the shortest path of resistance and will not divide 4 ways. Same goes for the old splitfires, etc.
i believe our cars already have platnuim plugs, which are already extremely good. You can always change your plug temps, probably will get better results using platniums at a different temp then a set of 4's.
I had a jeep, put the bosch 4's on it, noticed no difference... backed them up with a MSD ignition system, heavier wires and new distributer system... HUGE difference in power and economy.
Instead of new plugs, invest that money in a set of heavier duty more efficent wires. Hmmm, gives me an idea for my next cheap mod...

I am not sure on other engines but the 320 does not really have a plug wire. Each cylinder has 2 plugs in it making a total of 12 plugs. 6 of the plugs have the coil pack sitting right on top of the plug and a small wire to go to the other plug next to it.
