I think the guys over at my350z.com pretty much proved through dyno testing that the Pulstars are a bit of farce and that they perform no better than an NGK plug. IMO, these are the new the grounding wires.

Aren't 1 step colder for F/I only? Or is that supposed to be a hint for him to get F/I?

I got one step colders accidentally for my N/A car. I noticed that the service manual lists one step colders and one step hotters as types of spark plugs when servicing them. I just installed them a few days ago.

Let us know how they are. One of the sponsers said don't get 1 step colder for N/A, just the regular:

Its going to be hard for me to notice what difference the plugs make since I also installed my spacer at the same time. But so far no problems. At least not after I properly reconnected the harnesses to the correct plug =/
