I used the NGK's in mine when i changed them and am using the OEM plug wires. I am stock. You may want to go a heat range colder if you have the normal bolt-ons. Good luck.

I went with the bosch. I was told they are the OEM replacements to the stock NGKs. I really don't think it will make much of a difference if any, unless you are modded, then maybe a heat range colder.

I would recommend the Bosch wire set. The stock ones are Bosch. Just make sure to count them when you take them out of the box. Bosch admitted that some of their boxes were short of 1 lead. So you would only get 15 and not 16. It was only about $130 or so if I remember right for the whole set! Recommend long bent needle nose to remove the plug leads. The other brands are a bit iffy .. some you have to pull on the rubber boot to get them off. I don't like that. The bosch ones have a metal piece at the top to tug on

As for spark plugs NGKs all the way!!!

Yes these appear to be the same as these

I knew about the cheaper price at race-mart but found some bad reviews about em so decided to go with the always trusted amazon.

I was looking for these forever and supposedly Bosch Part 09850 is it!

Great so, at checkout it disappeared from the cart and says not available.
