i was misfiring really bad, ordered my ngks and couldnt wait that long so i bought bosch, put them in and they were ok....then i got my ngks in the mail and swapped them and noticed a huge difference...ive never been a fan of bosch, but trust me you will notice it with ngks

yeah ive never had luck with them... but anybody that wants to argue me on this just spend the 26 bucks (give or take) and get the ngks from summit (unless your local parts store sells them, mine dont)and come back here and tell me you didnt notice a difference

I might as well just get those NGKs just to be sure I'm running something that is compatible and know for a fact will work properly. Thanks for the help.

Alright... just called the parts store. They've got theV-Power TR5s. So what should I gap them... When I did the vehicle search on the NGK site it said .054 for the gap size on the TR55s. Now is that what I have to gap them to or is that how they come.

.054 sounds about right...
You will have to gap them yourself.

Yea. Thats what I thought but someone else mentioned something about 0.34 or something like that so I wasn't sure.
