And if you search in this archive, you'll notice that the spark plug and spark plug wire question was one of the first issues we addressed.

There plugs cool down faster to keep the temps in optimal range.
I just installed them last week so I can't say how good they'll be long term, but so far so good. Although, if I was to buy them again I would buy once pre-gapped closer to .030" . These were gapped at something like .050" and it was a pain the regap them that much.

still early days, but I think I like the Beru better. The NGK seem a hair smoother, but I don't think they pull quite as strong as the Beru (subtle difference I admit), and 1st estimate is I'm down 1+ mpg on freeway. The NGK part # is NGK-BKR6EIX-11, factory gap (regapping iridiums makes me nervous, center electrode is thin and brittle). Before the Beru I had Denso iridiums, liked them at the time (tried the Ultra-X just for fun).
