Default splitfire plugs

Anyone run them or know anything, good or bad? Now I aint buying into the increased hp or mpg claims. I was ordering some stuff from rockauto, and noticed they had them on sale for $ .97/ea

The price is right - because you won't try to run them forever to get your money out of them. Change early and often.

They didnt jack up the shipping of the other stuff I was ordering, so I got 16 of them at that price(in case they do wear out early)

BTW, they have wix air filters for $13 and change

Tried it a few times in late 80's early 90's. The first set that I used on my CRX, one plug was dead. Once replaced, it pretty much ran almost identical MPG's to the stock NGK's. Also tried it on a 626 Turbo that used NGK's too, ran just as well when newly installed....same MPG same 1/4 mile. Back then, they were one of the most expensive plugs out there. Gave up on them up, stuck to the originals, which deliver normal consistencies at a reasonable price.

The only thing that made any difference on an ignition system, is when I added an ignition box....hummm...wonder if anyone added one yet on a LR....search time.
