There's little no gain with spark plugs. So I wouldn't drop top dollar on them. Specially in a 1.8L engine. Wink

But if you must I've read some good reviews on the E3 plugs.

How much mileage/kilometer on your cube? The oem spark plug are rated to be good up to 100 000miles/160 000km. If you're far from this, don't waste your money.

Plus it ain't a easy task to do. You must take out the intake manifold plenum to get to the coil pack to remove them and after, get to the spark plugs.

Here's a video on the steps to do it.

Agree with this, no point in wasting your money, spark plugs really don't make a difference

On NA engine such as the MR18, no it won't make differences. But on a turbo engine with way more HP than stock, a different spark plug with bigger gapping will make a difference over the stock one.
