ok, why not give us the reference material that leads you to say what you do . then maybe we could all be enlightened . these ngk and densos arent bad plugs alot of us run them with good results. How much hp do you believe these other plugs create over the ones we use . but just saying they are trash is not an intelligent way of making your case. just an angry way . so how about the docs so we can see

I use since about 50'000 miles the Bosch 4 Spark Plugs and they work fine. Now I am going to change them and want to try either the Bosch Platinum +4 or something better.

So, give me the price of this "wonder" Spark Plugs and I may will try.

Sam, We used Torque Master Spark Plug in hydrogen engine Project, and the results were magnificent too!
Iridium and Platinum both has low Electrical Conductivity .

Brisk made in czech Rep. spark plug gave Cobra 03 , 7 hp gain.

So far I cant find the info I want. Most racing plugs are non resistor making them useless. Nology is silver, but is non-resistor. Brisk has silver racing, but doesnt specifically state if resistor or not. Im still looking, but if you know, let me know.
Cant see part numbers for Torque Master. Guess I must send their info form in for part numbers.
Most plug designs have different features and advantages, but for all practical purposes, they are the same. Wear and heat range is more important for each application.
As far power is concerned, I cant see the minor claims meaning much. If you dyno an engine numerous times that didnt have any changes, there would be variations larger than the claims made.
Mike, if you want a copy of my spark plug chart, let me know. It doesnt have TM or Brisk, but I might add them if I get the info I need.
Killer Zee, what plug are you using, PN?

ZR1 MK,
If you call guys at Briskusa.com , they will tell you what good for ZR1 , just give them your AC # ,or whatever,
and they give you the right one with heat range.
for Torgue master (USA) those are custom built for your need, there is no part # on plug itself, But they give you also the Right plug whatever car you have. long time ago i order those plugs, the owner is great man. call him !
her the link : http://www.extremespark.com
Fill the form:
