I can see how they're cheaper. Is that the only reason they're "better"?

Back in the day, the joke was, "NGK stands for No Good Kind". But, again, I never really saw how one plug could be better than another (for making power). I can see how quality might be different but then one would say, "xxx plugs are made better than yyy plugs."

Don't get me wrong; I am not defending Densos. I usually just walk into the dealership and ask for the right plugs and AFAIK, Toyota dealers always sells Densos.

I ran OEM denso plugs from the dealer until I boosted. I would recommend NGK for almost any import. I do not believe you make more power switching plugs, the only gain switching from copper plugs to platinum or iridium is the service interval (how long you can leave them in). There is no proof NGK is better than denso, it's just an opinion.
