They also broke the engine in for me at the Nuremburgring and with all that, if they said silvers were the way to go, good enough for me.

The only sadness is that replacing those plugs every three years and about 12000 km felt wasteful as they looked perfect every time.

Well, I'm just trying to stay up to date. I never heard of Silver Bosch plugs. If I could figure out which ones to use in my car, I might try them.
