    Welcome! (I think gpona just moves slow? Some great stuff there, though.)
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    Welcome. You'll learn a lot if you take a more in depth look at some of the posts by older more mature members who have been through 2 or 3 GP's most likely. As a general rule of thumb, as with anything else, when you want to do anything, research, research then research some more. There are no ill effects to being "over-informed" as opposed to not enough when it comes to your car. Other than that, enjoy, I invite you to make a member ride thread!
