E3 plugs
« on: August 02 2014, 12:09:15 AM »
Anyone running these? Been thinking about putting some in. I did run them in another car I had. Started quicker, picked up a bit over 1 mpg. No idea if any performance gain
 Saw some impressive hp gain on a few auto shows in dyno testing, both between 5-7 hp with just plug change........ so they said :chin:

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Like I said, I saw improvents in another car so I wondered if anyone had tried them and what they thought?

It's an apples/giraffes comparison most of the time.


he "improvements" from gimmick plugs are usually the result of tossing bad plugs, not the gimmicks themselves.
