Re: Iridium Plugs? (mac1009)
Has anyone tried these? I picked up a set for my car, but I'm curious if people have seen any noticable difference from platinum to these.
Thanks,
Dave

Well, I'm half way through the install, and all I can say is that C5 mechanics are worth their weight in gold. Plug 7 is the biggest pain. At least I'm 1/2 way there and from what I've read, the passenger side is a lot easier.
BTW, I'm not lookin for a 15 hp gain by adding in plugs. I plan on doing it like the ricers do. I'm gonna go buy me a v-tec sticker, that'll add at least 10-12 hp. :yesnod:
Actually, I was wondering more if people were happy with them or not. I wasn't sure how long they've been on the market, so I'm somewhat concerned that they won't last very long. Time will tell. :D

So what is the best plug for a HP Vette?
I presently have the Beru Silverstones in mine. They work great, however, recently I have noticed some back-firing between 1600 and 1800 RPM. Possible lose or bad wire? Bad plug?
