Anybody know what the differences are???? I was at Denso Iridium and it says that Denso IK22 is specifically for the S2000 at approx. $12. per plug. Which is reasonable. At the same time I was surfing at Inline four and they were selling Spoon Iridium plugs (Which are also made by Denso) for $104.43 (4)!!! That's twice the cost of IK22's????? Anyone know why

Well, the Spoon packaging does look pretty COOL!! But I'm not sure if its worth the extra $50 bucks(US)?

You might also consider the Denso IK24s, which are a slightly "colder" plug, if you plan to autox or track the car. Same price.

Same same. IK27 is cooler than IK24 which is cooler than the IK22.

Yup, they're made by Denso, but they're gapped to Spoon's specs.
