I cant imagine a NA VHR needing plugs before 50,000 miles, if not way more.

Wow I am surprised you had that many boosted miles on the stock plugs.. Maybe everyone is a little over paranoid about it?

Yes everyone is way too paranoid about the wrong things. These cars simply need hardly anything to support all the power the stock engine is good for.
