Once again nothing intelligent to say from you..

Electrically speaking..

All those fancy names you dont understand, do make a difference.

Basically all those names add up to, BETTER conductivity, and tougher metals, as in when you create an ARC of electricity (Plasma) from a regular piece of shit stock plug with zinc iron electrodes, you actually vapourize metal OFF of the plug.. as in, its not there anymore..

Tougher metals as in iriduim and all those others, do this to a much lesser degree..

AND have better throughput of electricity, being a better conductor, and therefore creating a hotter, larger spark.
Which means the gas is more easily ignited, end efficiently.

But hey, you keep that extra 5 bucks in your pocket, and spend 50 on gas instead.. whatever you like


End of story..

Now you can continue posting your negative comments all your life..

nothing weird about it..

They just dont last as long..

And are prone to carbon up..

Theres nothing wrong POS plugs, there just IS better available

If your getting 30 now.. I would imagine it would be even better.

At least 2-5 mpg better iIMO

Im all for that..

But.. it will take time..

Brand new plugs of any kind good or bad, are GREAT, and I mean great for the first 10k ,15 k (Kms)

Specially compared to being so use to your old ones.

so wait? we're gonna wait and see how long it takes for one of your plugs to self distruct and misfire? SWEET!!! now start driving!!

seriously... plugs can last a long time, doesn't mean they're still working like they did new though and they wont perform, simple as that
