I got Torque master plugs , very similar , cost like 12.00 each from www.newscionparts.com ( the are the carson toyota dealership so it wont void your warrenty) adds like 2-5 more lbs of torque in the lower gears so they say , idles a little bit rougher but I do feel the difference.

I'm sorry but the diffrence you are feeling is in your head. You might see a diffrence if you run diffrent plugs in a turbo or supercharger. All motor engine won't make a diffrence its just a gimmic to get more of your money. I had a civic and just for laughs I ran almost every plug they make for it even the platnuim plus 4's and iriduim. The best plug was a basic ngk plug nothing special and the iriduims are nice but power is the exact same they just last longer.

No way man, your crazy! I know they make a lot more power and I can prove it! It says so right in the ad. They got graphs and charts and like a kazillion very satisfied customers, and besides my brothers friends cousin has a sweet Honda and he tried them and he said it made a lot more power (and he has almost too much to begin with)! Heck, if you add some Nololgy Hotwires too you might have to get a parachute! 
I thought about trying one of the 4 sweetest plugs in each cylinder so I would get awesome HP, torque, economy and throttle response! Once I get this all taken care of and dyno-tuned I'm gonna go street racing and get some kills on a lot of fastcars!

^^ hahaha.. prolly not a lot of power but maybe a little more.. depending on stock plugs. i'm not sure what the tc has in them. i'm thinking titanium.
ok on the plugs, copper plugs, which are the cheapest ones out there, not all copper but slightly copperplated, transfer the spark better because the metal is softer and conducts better. the titanium ones are made of harder metal and thus take more power to make a spark. they don't conduct as well as the copper ones. less flow less spark.. more flow more spark. <more power. just my 2 cents.

I did look but don't belive it. I have been an automotive technition for 9 years and just can't see these plugs helping that much. If your plugs were really bad then yes you will notice a diffrence because you are refreshing your plugs. Prove me wrong go to a dyno put new plugs in let the engine run until it gets to operating and dyno. Then switch the plugs to NGK Iriduim IX and let the engine run until it gets to operating temp and dyno.
