IF you have not looking to spend a lot of money AC delco's are fine especially if you are just stock. I have been from Stock AC delcos to Bosh single and +4 now back to AC Delco (stock plugs) and my car is doing fine if not better than the Bosch.

so thats why cars with 12+ up to and over 30PSI run irridium?


theres a reason denso lists, the heat ranges so you can get hotter or colder ranges.


saying iridium is a no no with boost is like people saying you cant run high compression and boost, thats a no no....

Both are full of crap.

you can, however you have to know WTF you are doing and get the right supporting parts.

same goes for the plugs. do more research matt, cause right now you are just spouting out random BS.

HKS powered cars use em

also heres a guy running a 350BHP supercharged porsche

i have a bunch more links if need be.

pretty much iridium started to be used in high boost applications where platinum plugs were failing early. iridium being stronger and harder is more resistant to higher pressures and temps in the combustion chamber.


so please, dont speak on things you dont have a slightest clue on dude. get out more and see more or even research more, if you did you;d know more about iridium plugs.

probably can be useful in some degree. its kinda like a split fire where its supposed to "enchamber" the spark and create something similar to a jets ducted fan engine out the top upon combustion. but also to the sides.

seems gimmicky, cause with the cage that it creates that can possibly limit the combustion (orange in the pics on the site) a small bit.

its similar to U adn V groove single ground electrode plugs of today. just more grounding area.

not exactly like the +4s cause all three prongs are connected.

would possibly be worth a try. this is supposed to elevate the V and U groove technology to another level.


for the most part, people will only need a single ground electrode spark plug though.

last time i saw that site though i cant even remember what materials in full it was made from. anyone wanna be a guinea pig?
