Default What do we think of bosch plat. 4's??
Currently I'm running a set of Denso's IK22's. I'm wondering if i replaced them with Bosch plat 4's at one heat range colder would that be comprable?

Honestly my denso's are SHOT, I checked the other night the gap was all off between .038-.050! I gapped them back to .028 exactly and the car ran MUCH better but they are just done at 17k~ish on them it looks like.

Default I don't like the Bosh Platinum 4s. On cars with coils, they tend to kill them.
I shudder to think what they might do to coilpacks.
