i agree with pretty much everyone that says anything BUT bosch super (the good ol copper core regular spark plug) is a piece of ****. THUS stay away from bosch unless your buying a regular spark plug

ive always liked the way bosch plugs have ran, when i was drag racing, my car would run a full tenth quicker useing bosch super plugs over NGK's.
I do however agree with zuk on bosch plat's, i put them plat 2's in my MX-3 and it ran like ****, misfired...
Me personally i would stay away from them, id go with a copper core plug.

About the only thing a Bosch is good for is VW, and other German cars---Even they are going away from Bosch......What kind of drag car you got?Or are you talkin about the MX3?

Speaking of wrong spark plugs. The other night I picked up a riding lawnmower that didn't run. Well I did is put a fresh battery, changed the oil and the CORRECT plug. Now this puppy runs like a champ.:awesomework:

My redneck idea of cleaning the cylinder is to hand crank it so the piston is at the bottom of its stroke, then empty a can of PB Blaster in it. Let it sit of 4-5 hours or overnight, then shop-vac it out. I use a auto trans funnel as a plug hole to shop-vac adapter.........enjoy
