Default Spark Plugs for the 4.6 SOHC

Does anyone have any preferences regarding sparkplugs for their cars? I am planning a all around replacement and wanted to get some opinions. In the future, I may be going higher performace, so upgrading the plug now may be a good idea.

Ford's suggested replacement is AWSF-32PM...the ones that came stock are AWSF-32P.

Let me know what you think.

I would suggest Bosch, 2 or 4 prong. They are my personal prefrence and tested more HP and better fuel.

I would NEVER run Bosch's in a Mustang. I like NGK's.

If you are looking for better performance bosch is the way to go, Email a REP. at Roush Racing and ask for a competitive comparison of all spark plugs for your model year. even if we didnt make a car for that year we have tested it TRUST ME. However ask the auto store what would be better for your car, Single, Double, or Four Pronged plugs. There are raduim tips out there but to be honest i have no clue about them
