    If you are boosted, you want a step colder plugs, so LFR6AIX-11 is the part number you want.

    I wonder if this applies to the VQ's? I think Imma swap the ol ladies plugs in the Altima to 6A as well.

    *After a quick search, it appears the plugs are the same for both the QR25DE and the VQ35DE.
