    I'm sure this has been covered many times but I can't really remember. I used to run auto lite 104s in my old gtp but it was mildly modded. What's the best plug for a stock gtp. I got a set of cheap Bosch plugs but I'll probly take then back and get something better of needed

    I went ahead and got the autolite xp606 iridiums. So far so good. The plugs was originals. The car has 170k. The tips of the plugs was burnt off. The wires was cracked all over. I'm surprised it even ran.
