Would putting new NGK performance spark plugs in my 05 Civic DX (54,000 miles) be bad for the motor?
The other day I went to buy some NGK spark plugs for my 05 Civic DX, currently at 54,000 miles. But when I asked my buddy who owns the import parts store that I buy my stuff from for a price he said that it wouldnt be good for my car to switch out the factory plugs so soon.
After prompting him to explain himself, he gave me a semi-long explanation as to why it would be in my best interest to keep the factory plugs in the car at this point in the vehichle's life. Just about 30 seconds into his explanation I lost him completely and just nodded my head through the rest of it without actually comprehending what he was saying. However, I do recall him saying something about the plugs getting hot. I dont think he would lie to me (I mean he lost a sale), and he is really knowlegable about cars, but I just wanted to get other opinions about this.
Is it really better for me to keep the stock plugs and cables in the car right now?
it doesnt really matter, the ngk spark plugs get hotter because it burns the gas faster and then you'll have a little more power

Hiphone in hot sale!
Alpine amplifier is burnt?
i purchased an alpine amplifier from ebay, and the clamp for the battery cable looks like its been burnt, and the plastic surrounding area has obviously melted slightly. is it normal for the battery terminal to get hot like that or did the previous owner not have the wire properly hooked up? i dont know if this is going to be an issue or not, i imagine that the amp is working however if it doesnt you can bet im gonna file a bad sale claim on ebay to be getting my money back, im just wondering if its a normal thing for amps to do that? only the battery clamp area looks toasted not any of the other speaker wire clamps or anything. if the thing works i dont really care if its burnt there or not im just kind of curious as to wether or not this is normal and what the cause may be? thanks
i hate my life.
