Default E3 Spark Plugs?

Hey some guy at Advance Auto Parts recommended E3 spark plugs, saying they're the best out of all the spark plugs he's tried. I currently have NGK Iridium IX spark plugs in my Accord and noticed a slight difference in performance. What do you all know about E3 plugs?

Never heard of them, probably the same marketing scheme as the Bosch Platinum +4 BS. Honda uses NGK from the factory, recommends NGK, and so do 99% of all Honda drivers. I have the NGK Iridium IX plugs as well and probably will never switch.

Sidenote: Most of the people at auto stores are idiots. Keep this is mind: He's trying to make the store money, I'll bet cash money he'll talk up every part in the store, even the build it yourself air intake kits they have displayed behind the counter, lol.

Yeah I've never heard of E3 spark plugs except those they put in lawn equipment, besides the only E3 I know is of the E3 Expos for videogames, lol. I'll stick to my Iridium IX.

I have NGK iridiums....but honestly, it's just a spark.

As long as it fires true, you're good.

But if it has the wrong resistance like the Bosch's, it'll fry your coils.
