Default Spark Plugs
Hey guys, just wondering what Spark Plugs you recommend running. My Bro (mopar tech) say to always use the Stock Champion plugs. I have just a cold air intake and mopar BOV. I want to run E3 Plugs and upgrade the wires also later upgrade the coil as well. Let me know what you all think.

Welcome to the Forum, jingks .

Seeing that you have a GT, your brother is correct with the stock plugs. Some one else on the Forum with a GT may have other options.

As far as the coil goes, most will tell you it is a waste of money as the stock coil as good as replacements.

I agree with Hooligan. Stock Copper Plus Plugs gapped at .040 and the factory coil is way more than adequate.

Yes I have on both notes.
