i dont think a spark plug exist that will increase HP.

now the intake, highly doubtful as well. i had one like that and all it really does is increase the sound when you floor it. that price is a bit high tho,i bought mine on ebay for about 50 bucks.

I think GruppeM is a better intake option

Pretty sure I saw that identical intake on ebay for something like $9.99 and you need to do some serious reading of this thread

https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...ghlight=intake

has everything you need to know.

I know of no sparkplugs on an n/a engine that will increase horsepower unless the plugs in the car are faulty.
