Hey guys im thinking of swapping my spark plugs out for a new one cause ive been using brisk silver for a few months now. Any reccommendation? Budget is around 30/plug and performance is the primary consideration

NGK or Denso iridium. If you want more performance, you side gap the plug and regap it a little (provided it won't misfire).

 

Don't waste money on Brisk silver or Nology. I have tried almost every brand in the market. If you want better performance, get a bottle of the Novasyn instead. It really works.

Novasyn? Im using Brisk Silver and it smoothened my ride as compared to stock Bosch.

Check out on Boron CLS. Its an oil additive and it really works. IMHO, its better than spending $$$ on plugs.

 

As i have mentioned, I have tried all kinds of plugs. Brisk Premium LGS, Nology Silver. Even the crazy OWS double iridium plugs that cost over $250 a set. Its just slightly better than the iridiums but at what price? Not worth the money.

 

Now, I use only NGKs or Denso irdium. Best performance for the money.

 

If you really want better engine response, you are better off using the money and install a piggyback like Unichip instead. You get real performance improvements.

maybe u can share whats wrong with the plugs, i thot these premium plugs should last at least 40k upwards ?

 

Silver plugs dont last. Only iridium or platinum plugs last long.

IC, no point. Cause no spark plugs will give you massive gains. All are very tiny gains only. If you really want bigger gains, you need to upgrade your ignition as well. Plugs alone not enough.

any gd workshop to buy n install e plugs?

 

what brand is your car? any workshop should be able to do since its very easy [laugh]

icic... dunno if i should stick with my brisk.. only use around <4000km

Just stick with your current plugs.

 

If you really want to maximise performance from your plugs, its not about trying out various brands. Its about the proper plug gapping. YOu need to dyno the car and adjust the plug gap to maximise performance. Thats what racing teams to do their cars. They adjust gap till they see performance drop (means over the max already). Then see plug condition and tune car accordingly.

 

But I have to warn you that you are not going to make massive gains from plugs.

silver plugs performing very consistence to starting to 35K unlike iridium can last longer but deteriorate from time to time.

Silver plugs are no better than ordinary copper plugs and its a fact. if you are someone after power, you won't even bother about those expensive silver plugs (in fact literally everyone who run high boost high power engines uses ordinary copper plugs and not any fancy plugs).

 

I personally use iridium plugs cause it last longer than copper plugs, thats all. Performance wise, no difference as long as they are gap properly.

 

All these fancy silver plugs are just marketing gimmick. If you look at the cross section of the plug, you will notice that on the center tip is silver, the rest of the plug is not. Not even the center conductor (mostly copper or other metals). there is also a 5K ohm resistor in the middle. Any better electrical conductivity is practically killed off by this resistor and the resistance of the plug wires.

 

I have seen the demo by Nology. Only nology non resistor plugs with their wires could give more power spark. Normal plugs using their wires will not work, nor nology wires on normal wires will work. The simple reason is resistance. All our plugs and wires have high resistance in order to cut down on noise.

 

If you want more power spark, plugs are not the answer. your coil, igniter is the answer (for induction ignition). If not go for CDI.
