Default NGK or Champion?

Ok lets see what you all think here....I bought new plugs from the dealership here and they gave me 2 champions plugs, all my buddies are saying that NGK are way better and to toss the 2 new ones out and buy these NGK. Is there really that much of a difference? or is it just personal preference?

Thanks Guys

NGK are great high temperature plugs. Champion are good for lawn mowers. My .02 worth.

So why would the dealer sell a plug that isn't as good as what I should have?

NGK are far better. The Champion in my new Polaris lasted 100 miles and wouldn't start put in a new NGK and fired right up.

Not sure why the dealer stuck you with some crappy Champion plugs but I would bring them back and get the NGK's. Also, buy them from your local Napa or other parts place because they are probably cheaper than the dealer.

Yep....definantly NGK...my Hawkeye came stock with NGK in it. So I'm sticking with those. Never been a big fan of Champion plugs anyway.
