Denso Iridium, What will these plugs do for my engine?
Denso Iridium spark plugs read about them, heard about them. Will they add anything to my car over the stock plug that is in there right now?
Car is not winter driven. Daily driver, raced on weekends. Forget cost, what or where will I see improvements if any? short term/long term? I will never add a power booster, always N/A.
Please, if I want to purchase them, I will search you out, I am looking for advice or feedback just now. Thanks.

lol, yea set me up with 4 for now I put them in the odd firing order sequence to see if they are better than the originals if they work good it may be h@ll on drinking my coffee on every odd plug fire. drum roll... and hold the taxes for Biz. lol
I read that they are really good for boosted cars like your friends and yours. Not sure on a N/A app though.

Most debates over plugs is usually copper .vs. platinum and I ALWAYS suggest going with Copper. The same theorys exist for Copper .vs. Iridium.
On a blower car, I won't tune it unless it is running a specific copper motorcfrat plug. On a N/A car I highly suggest it as well, but it is not as important.
Copper is a much better conductor of electricity than other materials, but at a cost: it wears out sooner.
My opinion,
Use a copper plug on an N/A engine and replace them every 15-20k.
On a blower car every 5-10K miles should be your replacement interval.
