Check the Cat converter hasen't decided to fail as when they do bits break up and block the exhaust = loss of power.

Also check crank case speed sensor.

BY PUTTING A NEW ONE ON I GUARANTEE YOUR CAR WILL BE BETTER AND FASTER.

A bit like changing the dizzy cap on old motors.

Is your engine a red top or eco teck 16v.

Finally But the most expensive plugs you can for your car if its power you are after.

I would check the first things i mentioned first.

contact your spare parts dealer he will suggest you well.
if your changing the plugs i would advise changing the leads as well unless they have been recently done. also improving the air intake or even replacing the air filter will help.
