Hi,

I suggest you search the forums using for 'torque master' and you'll get lots of answers to your question no waiting


Here's a good one

Thanks Dave. That's some good reading. Where's the best place to get TM plugs. My 90k is coming up in 5,000 miles and my dealer told me to go ahead and bring in whatever parts I want. I plan on order the serp belt, timing belt, and water pump from Sewell. Do they also sell TM plugs or do I need to get those somewhere else?

Carson Toyota is your best bet. Support a fellow vendor. I bought my plugs from them and could have picked it up same day (20 min away), but I got lazy so they sent them and I received them the next day.


As far as differences, my butt tells me I have no gain, but thats because my car is stock. It'll probably make power on a car with say an intake. Who knows..i'm going to get my car dynoed soon.

If you are going to mod your vehicle for performance, I highly recommend these plugs. Will also improve your emissions. Carson is where I got them, too. Excellent service.
