    Well is way to soon to be saying this,
    But i have had the plugs in since Thursday
    and i am still very much impressed....
    Our gas milage around town has improved..
    we were getting 21 to 22--- is is now holding at 25
    for city driving.
    Hwy driving was at 28 to 31 and now is 35.8
    Traffic pendending...
    The motor once it warms up is just awsome
    and very smooth and can still feel the difference
    in the power..

    But like i said is still to early to be making judgement calls

    That is a great initial review. I wished I could run that type of plug. We shall see what they tell me over the phone later today, as I only want to buy the right Brisk plug for my mod level. Heck I'm excited for you.

    Update on my Brisk search. I spoke with someone at Brisk a few minutes ago. He confirmed that only a stock or mildly modded car should use the LGS series plugs. The reason behind this is that on a boosted or higher compression vehicle, with the plug gap on the LGS not being adjustable, it is too wide and the center electrode will arch to the resistor burning it out. Weird, I never considered my car as anything but mildly modded.

    The gentleman I spoke to today also told me to run the G14YS. He said the silver racing plugs were the ones that tested to improve HP by 4 and not the LGS. However, he is looking into the recommended plugs not being a resistor plug. He or the initial person I emailed on Friday will call me back after noon today with more information. The madness continues.

    Lee,

    Personally I think your car is a "bit more" than mildly modded. When I have seen the words mildly modded, it was in association with Catback exhaust, CIA, Cooler Stat, etc.

    But you sir have the Cam, Togs and all the ported goodies on top of that

    I think you fall into that "highly" modded category

    Hmmm and I didn't consider air intake and DP as modded really. See, I would call an all out race only and not very streetable car as highly modded. But evidently I'm wrong.

    I think I found the Brisk plugs for my car. GR14S. Silver racing, resistor, with a cutback electrode. Just waiting for confirmation and then...it's time to feed the addiction.
