So I gave them a try & then removed/inspected them after about 500 miles. The plugs showed very clean & even burn. All plugs looked exactly the same. The piston tops looked a lot better also. A more even & complete fire pattern. It looked like the piston tops had become cleaner. I did notice more power, but I also changed plug wires & a slightly hotter coil. I plan to keep them, I like'm. No gaping; just install & go
They you go, somebody who has his own proof these are good things.

More power is the result of more complete combustion hence cleaner piston tops and chambers, with less carbon buildup.

I have them in one car, the others will get them one day.

The guy on the video should go back to mechanic school.

Cleaning plugs is old hat.
