Nology Silver Spark Plug - Feedback needed

[Vtim]

no ley, swift GTi uses Denso IW22, no many stockist will have it, even have also not cheap

 

go JB to convert the boot of your plugs cable from your current 20.8mm hex nut size to 16mm hex nut size and you can use IK22 liao

 

the only diff between the "IW" and "IK" is the hex nut size, the rest of the dimension are the same

[Dynaway]

hmm... assuming the hex is the only diff.. tat means the ceramic area(white) body if they are the same, should be able to fit in nicely....

 

i dun think i wanna change my boot... i'm running nology hotwire... doesnt make sense for me to change the boot.

 

 

anyone got used IK22 for me to try????

yes, confirm only the hex nut is diff, the ceramic body is the same as both are of the same heat range and of the same thread (depth) size into the engine compartment.

 

if you don't want to change the boot size, you still can plug the cable onto the plugs end except the boot will be a bit loose, if you go thru' small pot hole/hump at speed, the cable may come loose, also it won't be water tight.

 

you can check the specs for "W" and "K" diff here, the thread size is the same: http://www.denso.com.sg/tpl/pdtlineup_plug_type.html

i think the GTi engine rather safe... cause got 2 lobes...one on the cylinder head, the other on the cam cover... i think the nology boot did not cover the hex at all...

 

i'll check n double confirm....

 

wats the cost of the IK22 size platinum plug for NGK????

[Vtim]

will PM you

 

oh some more info for the Denso and NGK,

 

Denso Iridium - IK22 is pre-gap at 0.8mm and center electrode tip is 0.4mm diameter

 

vs

 

NGK Iridium IX - BKR7EIX-11 is pre-gap at 1.1mm and center electrode tip is 0.6mm diameter.

[Accordvtec]

hmm..i tot its retailing for abt $98 for 4pc..

 

where can i get them @ $98?

can pm to share

thanx

[Elfenstar]

They're quite good. I couldnt feel a thing, but on the 180 it gave 5bhp more on the dyno.

WOW! 5 BHP MORE ON DYNO!! where did u tune ur car??

 

in melbourne

[Accordvtec]

really confused

Nology silver plugs $98-$120?

NGK Iridium IX @ $50!

Any advice?

[Dynaway]

aiyah...

 

forget abt the silver nology... doesnt seem a value for $$$$

 

i think Iridiums are a lot more affordable compared to it.

 

Denso, NGK Iridiums are ard 50-70

 

Platinums ard 30-50

 

normal plug $3-5

[Genie47]

Not applicable to daily driver cars lah! The Ag will burnout before 3k mileage. Power will be good though. FYI, Ag is best conductor but not the most durable metal around.

really depends on type of plugs. some long life iridium or long iridium plugs can cost >$100+ also.

[Accordvtec]

Thanks for the straightfwd answer.

Actually i already know the answer.

just need some re-assurance.

[Accordvtec]

wow...thanks for the enlightening,bro

[Dynaway]

whaha....

 

i think i go back to normal plug better.... since i do servicing @ every 5000km or 3mth which ever comes first....

 

i feel its more worth the $$$, iridium isnt much fantastic....

Get Brisk Silver Plugs, slightly cheaper, they are the same as brisk produce them for nology too..

 

You are right. Can seen it on the box.

 

Most important thing. Brisk plugs are build with resistor.

[Lammy]

In fact, brisk has made racing plugs for Nology but really meant for the local cars. These are mainly for race cars that dont bother about audio and interference. Furhter to that after one or 2 races, these plugs are changed out. The plugs are usually of heatrange 22(denso) (brisk 14) and do not have any 5kohm resistor.

 

This will translate to the following:

1. which means you need to revv very high when you drive a hyundai getz to get self cleaning state on the plug. Totally too cold for small cars.

2. RFI radio frequency interference will be prominent on those with mid to high end audio setup. Seen a number of cases especially on Lancers.

 

Brisk on the other hand offer heatrange from 17-12 equivalent to Denso 16-27.

 

In fact, we have heard from our customer on outrageous mileage gain from users on picanto claiming 70-100km gain on just plain installing the entry level plug of DR17YS-9. A kelisa gain 50km on the same plug. A Getz can get up to 510km when the light is up.

Who can believe it? As long as the car owner loves it, it does not matter.

 

Brisk is already in Singapore since Oct 07. We have seen Premium plugs running up to 30,000km without a problem on a honda civic. Its all up to individual to believe what is real. For those who is already on Brisk, I am happy for you, for those who is not, listening to others whose using the plugs sometimes make it sound so unreal.

 

Its all up to individual to test it out and see the difference. Especially small cars.
