i have heard that they don't work well with gm cars. engines with efi are very picky with plugs, especially gm. if you used a champion plug in an lsj, super diamond with nuclear reactor etc or not it's going to run like crap. someone's gotta try it to find out though.

Well I know the bosch quad tipped spark plugs I had to use temporarily gave me 52 missfires a second (hptuners) if I put the pedal down any... Think I'll group these in the same group lol. Simple ftw!

Bosch plugs are garbage. None of the shops I've ever worked at would use Bosch plugs because they always come back with misfires.

I'm running E3 spark plugs in my 08 sport cobalt. No problems and if anything it even smoothed out my idle slightly. Maybe a very minor increase in power but that's about it. Nice not having to gauge the bastards too. :)

Im running Bosch Plat 2's, they seem to running fine. i guess it all depends on preference. i love bosch parts. so i tend to run bosch in most everything i drive. how much more fuel efficient could ya get with a different spark plug? (just throwin it out there)

Multi-prong plugs don't work well in boosted applications. Just run AC Delco or NGK copper plugs. Replace every 10,000 miles. They're cheap, and work extremely well.
