Recommend spark plugs and coil boots?
I need to get some new spark plugs and coil boots for my 2001 GT.
I don't want to break the bank, but I also want to make sure what I get is up-to-par with the fact my Mustang is supercharged and likely needs or would benefit from something better than budget-grade.
I usually shop at Oreilley's. Can anybody make a recommendation?

Very cool. Thanks.
I think I found the thread you are talking about:
https://mustangforums.com/forum/4-6l...op-tester.html
So with my supercharged GT it looks like I should just go with stock/factory spec plugs and stick with Motorcraft coils and plug boots, yes?
Anybody know a good source for those parts? I'm seeing prices of around $275 for a set of coils and boots. Maybe I don't need to replace them all, but 1 has been sitting in coolant, another the conductor spring is all rusty, those two have been misfiring, and third has a broken connector on it. The car has 62,000 miles on it. I'm right to be wanting to just get a full set of new coils, boots and plugs, right?

I think there is another post on spark plugs, I think rock auto has motor craft COP's for a reasonable price, but you will have to check
Check you local ford dealer as well sometimes and i mean sometimes you can get a good price.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately that looks like it's for a set of 4 COPs:
