Default NGK plugs / wires

A lot of you guys rock this product
but really what is the difference between
some of the really pricey plugs (power cables $115) and dbl platnium plugs ($11) online
if the real difference comes into play when you have done some extensive mods
like turbo or nos verses having a daily driver...?
What plugs are you guys running
hotter or colder?

ANY OTHER WIRE SET is overrated. We use NGK wires even on our 700+hp race cars running on Methanol and Gas. There is no need for more expensive wires. the NGK work the best and reliability is #1. Dont waste your money on the "thicker" "better looking" wires. No need for them.

which plugs and wires are you using from ngk? I checked online and they have some low end ones (not as expensive) and some high end stuff (more expensive). Thanks for the info!

I just went to autozone to check some out but they did not carry them. a place here called kragen does have the plugs but no cables. He wanted to sell me some nascar ones but I was like....eh I'd rather keep the same brand name...
