    I have the NGK iridium 2 ranges colder. Are these any good? And with these plugs, how long till i change them out? I always see people using Autolite 103 or 104's. Whats the difference?

    Different brand. They are both a copper plug. I personally use autolites. With any copper plug being on a superchargd application you can plan on changing them every 6-10K miles.

    Your probably due soon. Although I have never put those in any of my cars. No reason really. Just more expensive I guess.

    iridiums run hotter, but they last longer. for a boosted motor, run coppers and change them every 10k

    Iridiums on a boosted motor aren't the best route...just get some Autolite's...I'd say with your mods get 104's. If you ever go cammed or IC'ed then 103's.
