ive tried them all, and actually prefer the basic ngk v-powers for 1.59 a piece.
i had there iridiums, but seriousely didnt notice a change from the basic ones, so i run the v-powers about every year i change them.

Copper owns all... all that Iridium/platnium/etc. doesn't do anything better than copper, except last longer. And changing plugs isn't that difficult anyway on an I4. Besides, I think the only material more conductive than copper is silver, and that would make an expensive plug.

I've used NGK's iridium, platinum, and copper. By far the best bang for the buck is the NGK V-Grove part number BKR6E-11. If you by 32 I believe on sparkplugs.com you get them for about 1.45 each.
