so what exactly is the benefit of "upgrading" spark plugs. and if i do do it what kind should i get

you can get a hotter spark. Not really needed on a stock engine... I wouldn't worry about getting anything too fancy, just some decent quality (I like name brands) plugs and wires. keep it running right really.

got some really good halo plugs for sale, still, in the classified section. would work great on your car.

or, you can get a cooler plug pending your application. autolights are fine, halos are good plugs to.

since we are on the subject has any one tried the pulse plugs they keep advirtising in popular mechanics iv seen them advirtised else where also

The Yellow Pinto

^^^ if i remember those correctly, those plugs are HELLA expensive. i think you can get a whole supercoil, bigger wires, and good plug set up for the price of those.

The Yellow Pinto

My God, just googled them....25.00 PER PLUG. yeah, you can get a accel super coil, a set of msd 8.5 wires, and iridium plugs and gap them to .060 for that price, and guaratneee that setup will outperform the pulstars.

i've got autolite platinum that im waiting to put on my car. i've heard people here say copper is the way to go, however, i was at the dealership recently and they put platinum plugs in any cars they work on. platinum will last longer and produce a longer consistent spark than copper. ive only heard bad things about triple platinum plugs and other plugs in that category though.

you shouldn't need to spend more than $8-9 a plug, unless your engine calls for it.

autolights are fine for $1.10 a plug or whatever, if you want something a little more fancyer then halo plugs are also good plugs for $6.99 ea. there is no need to spend more then that
