i no your gonna say use the search function but all i'm reading is peoples post about stuff that they are guessing! one says one thing and another says another.
basicaly, i'll be running 1-1.2 bar soon, so what heat range of denso irridums do i REALLY need!!!??? will i need one heat range lower than standard- which is what code?
also at this state of tune what is the gap?
thanks guys

this normally happens thru DET'ing and having the wrong heat range!

i think the answer your looking for is heat range 7.. thats good for a bar and over.. heat range 8 are what you would use for under a bar.. i think thats right.. but then i am a bit drunk.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWN :roll: sorry just woke up :D platnium V's iridium eh? well im now using denso ik24' s for 1bar iv left em in for at least 4months i'll let you know what they' re like when i take em out sometime this week but the cars running sweet as atm.
didnt know denso did a platnium plug of the right heat range will enquire. had hks s45i' s in for a while and found they fouled up at town speeds OR it may have been because of the millers octane booster i was using at the time :?
used ngk pfr7' b for a bit too but they are meant for cars running standard boost (wrong heat range i think)and i got paranoid about em :oops:
i wont say who but one mambers running platnium super4' s and did VERY well at a recent rr event :wink: cant say if they helped but they didn' t hinder thats for sure. iv not tried em personally.

hope that helps :lol: stu

they are slim(.4mm i think) but under what conditions did they break :? . i got a guy in a shop to call ngk(he claimed he did) and he reckoned they dont do a colder plug than the pfr7 :? thats rhubarb isn' t it?

Just keep in mind, that if you want to run 1.0-1.2 bar you wil need a colder plug wich has a HIGHER number, not a lower one, as some people might advise you.

For 1.0-1.2 just get some NGK heat-range 8 iridium plugs,
Denso,HKS,Champion,NGK, whatever.
