Iridium NGKs are by far the best things you can put in any engine. I ran Iridium NGKs in all my cars. I also Run Iridium NGKs (when available) in my Motorcycles as well. I've tried all the "special plugs" out there but the best plugs I've come across are the Iridium NGK's or standard NGKs, the special plugs like quad spark and diamond tipped and all that crap ended up failing me, I got my money back once for a set of Bosch Quad spark for one fouled in 2k miles. Switched to Iridium NGKs and they lasted for the rest of the life of the car!
But for HP even if you were running stock crap Autolites and switch to Iridiums, the only way you'd notice any gains especially in a car is if one of your plugs was fouled out and you were miss firing under load. we are talking 4hp max if that in gains... Not noticeable in a car and barely noticeable on a motorcycle. When I made the switch on the bikes I didn't notice any real gains..
I run Iridium's when I can for they last longer and tend to take abuse better than any other plug out there. But NGKs are the best I've dealt with, if I can't get iridium I always put yellow box (standard) NGKs in.

I'm pretty set with NGK's, I come from rotary world, lol. I only ran them on my rx7. everything else just...sucked.
