Right managed to install my Iridium plugs - ZFR6FIX-11 and my KV85 ht leads which both came through on thursday. So what are they like? Well as i have an automatic there doesnt seem to be a huge difference in performance from the Standard NGK spark plugs and KV 83s i had on before, but when i dropped her to D3 and put sports button on she went like a f%cking rocket! Will take time to see how they perform but so far happy enough with the results.

Question to you guys: Can i expect better performance overall with the kv85s and Iridium spark plugs opposed to what i did have on the lude, or do you only gain a little better performance? Either way happy enough.

There wont be a difference in performance but there will be a restoration in how they are meant to perform. Well i never noticed a difference.

Cos I've been working boss. Had a pretty busy start to the year tbh. But we will meet upon your return. :)

Hopefully my car will be in a presentable condition by then. ;)
