Denso Iridium Spark Plugs Evo 9

Iridium: 8 times stronger than platinum, 6 times harder, and with a melting point 1200 degrees higher. New laser welding techniques make it possible to make a spark plug with an iridium electrode. The result is a plug that requires less voltage to spark, burns more of the fuel in the cylinder, and can spark at LEANER air/fuel mixtures (see inset diagram), resulting in higher horsepower and better gas mileage. Although the plugs are expensive, you don't have to change them as often as garden variety spark plugs. The iridium electrode is extremely resistant to erosion, so it can last MUCH longer than a normal plug. (Longevity will vary by usage, fuel mixture, and other factors.) It's the ultimate spark plug. Available in stock heat range, or one range colder for high horsepower applications. (Our rule of thumb is to go one range colder for every 75-100 horsepower over stock.) Install note: The iridium center electrode is very thin. Unlike a conventional plug, you cannot gap the plug by s
