Default Best sparkplugs for performance in an RX300

We have a RX300 that will be getting a tuneup soon. The car is a 99 model with about 81,000 miles on it and naturally with age, the performance is starting to lag.

When we go for our next tuneup (in the very near future), I want to put in some plugs that will give our puppy some zip.

Your suggestions on plugs, or anything else to boost performance is appreciated. Thanks.

If you want zip, go with a direct flow muffler as a mod. A K&N filter isn't bad either to start, but not even close to the zip to cost as the muffler.

The plugs we have talked about and that I use, TorqueMasters, will pack much more punch if you have all the nice little mods my RX has.

When I put them in before doing all the current mods, it felt about same in terms of zip as the K&N filter the first time around. Thus, my intial experience was virtually nothing. However, the experience between them and my OEM plugs with my existing mods is phenomenal.
