Bought new plugs/wires...review

I got a 1991 318i with 114k miles. I noticed i was loosing power...so i decided on getting new plugs and wires. I went with bosch, and boy am i happy. After changing my plugs, wires and fuel filter the car runs better then ever. I have noticed the increase in power and responsive-ness of the car. Platinum plus plugs and the most expensive wires go a long way aprently. 170 for plugs and wires.

ok well my point...if your cars feeling slugish try to change out your plugs...it makes a huge difference.

i dont have an M42/44 but i put them in my M20 and they did rock. never had a problem. i have heard that they mask engine problems, and i did tons of research and could not find anything that would substantiate these claims.

anyway, i think they are great, but if ure not sure, go with bosch silvers

..well update since last post about this.
Car is running better then ever. I get amazing gas mileage now. The difference can really be felt if im alone int he car...obviously its a 4cyl so people still weigh it down.

Bosch platinums rock for e30's
