Those motherin' plug wires should be damned to hell for eternity. Had to use a 17mm combo wrench and acrobatic digit strength to get those off. I was to chicken to put on the Magnecor wires for fear of dealer branding me a "modder". Now I know why the plug change is so long. MB uses Iridium plugs as standard. Going one range hotter (as in the 320) should keep those puppies glowing well. Not running extra boost via pulley or extra timing via ECU, so it is of no consequence. Fun motor to work with.

The hotter ones. I think that they are the 16s. I remember some people using the 20s saying they were not happy with them, but I have been very happy with the 16s."
