Ok guys, sorry for the extra posts... but just trying to get things in order.
I think i need to put some fresh plugs in my car. Simply because i did not do it when i did my swap, so they are probaly still stock with who knows how many miles on them.
I really dont know much about plugs. I did a little search but didnt come up with much i understood. LOL.... Yes, i can do a K swap, but NO, i dont know shit about plugs. I dont know if mine are bad, but i pulled then when they were cold and they were looking pretty darn black. Let them idle for about 15 mins and they lighten up, but looked like their might be small depostits on them (not that i know what deposits look like..lol) So, i think they may be fouled, and being that im still tunning my A/F id like to get a couple fresh sets to use to make sure im getting acurate A/F readings.
So, basicaly im looking for some affordable plugs. Nothing fancy. I head some basic NGK's may be the way to go, or maybe just stock??? Can someone set me up with a recomendation and some part numbers?
Also, what is the stock gap? And is stock gap good or are you guys getting better results with a larger gap? And whats the propper gapping procedure???
Sorry for all the questions. Just want to learn a little and get setup right
I am NA and this is not a daily driver. She gets driven to the track once every week or two, and may once in awhile take some light road trips.. thats about it .
I just went to denso web site and IK22 is stock heat range for k20a2, I bet that bastard gave me some for base model, I know I told him type S, just a reminder of making sure people at auto zone get your shit right.
damn which auto zone are you guys going to to find the plugs that cheap...the cheapest i can find them is 12.99 a piece and it's at my local autozone...my shiet ran like shiet at first when i noticed that some idiot...installed in some ik16's into my motor when i first got the motor running...ik22's definately feels alot smoother...
I would'nt put anything less than the honda plugs they are Ngk and they are the best. They are exspensive but why skimp when you want to get most out of your engine.

I really hate when people make a post with no meaningful information, but claim they know best. Your reasons for picking Honda plugs are completely speculative and have no scientific or logical basis. Just because it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside when you buy expensive Honda plugs, doesn't mean they are technically superior in any way.
People... do your own research... educate yourselves, and then feel proud when you know how and why the (whatever item you bought) is best for your application.
Actually depending what plant the vehicle is built in. Honda uses both NGK and Denso plugs on the same model. That's why if you look at the parts info when looking up plugs they sometimes give you two different options. As far as NGK or Denso plugs. Try clubplug.net
