I just received an email from Dave from the Sonic Spark Plugs. I must say I'm fairly interested on how well these will work

Dave said the BKR5E-11's are the plugs that he has in stock.

Here is a customer feedback page...

Updating this thread to be the search for the best spark plug!

So far I have a few spark plugs/spark plug mods in question, that seem legit.

Siding Gaping
Cost - The price of some new plugs if you screw your current ones up

Spark Plug Keying - To see the article scroll down to the "Keying your spark plugs" section.
Concept - By turning the open end of the spark plug ground electrode to the intake valves, the spark should be able to better combust the incoming fuel
Cost - How ever much the washers would cost.

Sonic Spark Plugs
Concept - Using OEM spark plugs, NGK or Autolite. By drilling a little hole in the ground electrode, you can create a super sonic sound that will be sent with the spark to better combust the fuel.
Cost - $6.95 a plug

I contacted Dave, he said that for my 1999 Nissan Sentra he has BKR5E-11 plugs and Iridium plugs. By the dyno results below, I think Super Sonic Iridium plugs could be the best available option!

Pulstar Plus Plugs at 1M Watts of power!
Concept - Bigger/brighter spark will help the fuel burn more efficiently.
Cost - $25 a plug, a bit steep but might be worth it.

NGK Iridium Plugs
Concept - Better metal for conductivity. I don't have too much information on how exactly these work.
Cost - About $6-11 a Plug

Dyno Chart for a SRT4 testing with different spark plugs.

FireStorm SparkPlug!

By far this spark plug got most of my attention. With claims to increase MPG's up to 44%-50%!

This spark plug can allow you to really lean out your engine to 24:1 A/F ratio!

It's actually a little surprising to me how much those torque numbers varied. I never would've guessed that you could have a variation of over 10 lb ft just from that.

BTW man you don't want to lean out your A/F ratios like that, you'll ruin your engine quick!

Nice post

Alright I've been keeping an eye on the Iridium plugs.

A friend of mine is running some in his SE-L. Anyone else run these in our engines?

I'm thinking about getting the Super Sonic version of the NGK Iridium plug hehe

yeah the prices of the denso are pretty expendsive.

ive read if you run the 7e's they recomend replacing them every oil change, altho they arent that expendsive so it doesnt really matter to me about 12.00 for the 7e's
