        Had my mechanic drop these onto my Hyundai 2002 Elantra with 70K miles. My mileage had been dropping to 14mpg in the city (granted, I don't do a lot of heavy driving) and the engine ran rough. My mechanic said I probably didn't need new plugs and wires, but I got these along with autolite wires and had them put in. Big difference. Motor runs smoother and now at 20mpg in the city (I drive 2 miles to work). Faster driving seen similar gains.

              These were an awesome improvment for my 2002 Toyota Celica (120,000 mi). They fit perfectly, no check engine lights and I've had these for a month.

              There was a noticable increase in gas milage. Also, I coupled this tune up with a new short ram air intake and my acceleration and engine response is through the roof. I've been having way too much fun between these and my SRI.

                These spark plugs are great, Not only do they last for a very long time (if installed proper) they also improve how quick your engine starts and id say maybe you will see a minor difference in gas mileage for the better. I installed this product on a 2000 hyundai tiburon 2.0L, yes they are a little pricey but worth every penny.

                  As NGK states: laser-welded iridium center electrode is resistant to heat, corrosion and minimizes quenching.
                  These plugs provide outstanding acceleration and high fuel efficiency over copper resistor plugs.
                  Another product from NGK that exceeds expectation, if your vehicle is equiped with resistor plugs a NGK iridium is a true performer. You can expect longer life from these spark plugs, as much as double the milage depending on driving conditions.
                  If you install for a living you know how iridium plugs help improve in most applications.

                    When buying online it is important for you to call ahead and make sure the in-store inventory jives with what the online inventory indicates. I had to get the pickup store to call another store and transfer so I could complete the order. I then had to drive to the other store and pickup the rest of my order. A little inconvenient but the store guys were still great about helping me to fill my order.
