hate to break it to you but i don't think you're going to see a large if any improvement in your acceleration. The NGK BKR6E should be just fine (and alot cheaper)

Yeah man, spark plugs are just for providing spark, nothing more, nothing less. They have to amazing voodoo to give people more power. Sure if they're old or fouled you'll feel an increase, but your only providing power that was lost due to bad plugs.

if spending more makes you feel better than go for it. they are not any better and if anything could cause problems. majority of ppl up to those with full BT setups run BKR6E or BKR7E

if you haven't already installed those, i'd say return em and get a set of BKR6E, gap it to .032 if ur stock, .028 if chipped. and put the money you save towards a chip

if they are the stock plugs then they shouldn't cause any problems. most agree though that the copper plugs perform better.
