Bosch Platinum 4 Spark Plugs

I just ordered these plugs for my 95 c36 from the Perf Benz website. Besides the plugs lasting much longer is there a performance gain?

I have had bad experiences with those plugs and I believe others have too. I would get a single ground strap plug from NGK or Champion. All those ground straps on the Bosch plugs get in the way of fast, complete cylinder burning.

They recommend Bosch plugs too. So I'm going with the single prong platinum.

You could go with the Denso Iridium - I put 'em in mine and love them.

Jon,

Is your C36 comparable in acceleration to your 350Z?

I know at Some roadrace events my C43 of old was just a little faster off the corners. Just curious.

My c36 is quick as my 350z. But the Z handles like its on rails. Also at high speeds the Zs aerod is unbelievable. Anyway just installed the Denso iridium plugs. The previous owner had Bosch platinum 4! The car ran perfect now its got better lowend. What is cylinder burn?
