I got a buddy of mine with an 05 srt 4 with a stage one. We installed a short shifter last week and next week we have a cold air intake to install.
I have been sifting through srt forums, here, and turbo dodge and want some recommendations on what plugs and wires to run. He wants performance and doesn't know a lot about mechanical work so I am his designated mechanic.
Any opinions would be appreciated
Thanks

The NGK 4306 plugs are a good convetional copper core plug. Change them every other oil change. I like the Magnecore wires.

Do not consider any of the aftermarket replacement coil "upgrades".

is it not true that the only plugs you can get in colder heat ranges are the iridiums?

I haven't been able to get a clear answer on wether or not the 4306 NGK's are colder, but they are recommended by Mopar for use with the staged upgrade kits.
