They tend to break, the ceramic part, if that happens and it gets down in your engine you could scrape the walls of your cylinder bad. This is all COULD stuff. There was a thread not long ago in the performance section about these super plugs, it didn't read well.

I was also thinking of going with Iridium, but I haven't heard anything really good about them on here. I see that IPD has changed the brand they carry, possibly because of these issues.

i agree, the plugs really aren't worth what they cost. i did see a small improvement in gas mileage, but i have no idea how old the previous plugs were.

when it's time to get new plugs, or maybe even next time i'm at GI Joes, i'm gonna pick up some Bosch Coppers.

what did you re-gap them to? i checked the gap on mine, it was .028". next time i'll save myself some money and just buy Bosch Coppers.

.28? Must have a rail gun powering those. I actually suggest gapping down on a high boost app with oem coils. Something like .025
