      I use this exact plug in my car... with no issues at all.

      NGK Iridium seem to be great plugs.

      You aren't supposed to regap Iridiums due to the very fine electrodes. It states this on the packaging.

            hey so does anyone know if there is a 'lifespan' of iridium plugs? coz i've had these ngk iridiums for a couple of years just sitting here at home. never been used. u think they'd still work fine if i put them in my car now?

            condition of them is brand new as they're still in the box and been sitting in my drawer.

                  LOL - i am not trying to say ANYTHING, was just answering wayne's question!!!!

                  i.e. i "know about having Iridiums ie BKR6e11 "

                  i sent that page to adrian for analysis BEFORE my recent dyno tune, and he said there were OK (but contaminated with octane booster deposit), but best to get a colder heat range as i would be tracking the car more often...

                  but yeah - those plugs look fine to me probly last another 20'000km more i guess?

                    they would last several hundred thousand times longer than you own organic body outside an operating engine...

                      sorry tinks my question was missleading.. or i think i just plainly didnt state my question well =P..

                      i know about the Iridium Equivalent of BKR6e11. the BKR6eIX11 or whatever..

                      my question was about gapping them to under 1.1 and Cam saying that it might damage the Electrode..

                      Because i goto run smaller than 1.1 gap.. my question was does it come in a smaller Gap ie lets assume this plug exist BLK6e9

                      i need a 9 gauge gaped plug for the irridium version ? Do you know any brands that will fit into a B series engine that is irridium and a 9 gap?

                      and i dont purposely use things that are not stated in the honda manual i know..

                      but if it doesnt exist would u Gap the BKr6IX11? to 9? or

                              my thoughts: if my tuner tells me to get colder plugs, i do what he says.

                                since you already have them fitted, Thoughts?

                                and it says its a Caulked. it says cannot be removed.. umm wha? the ones in your photo were they the IRIWay or are those just the other ones?

                                and at 25 bucks each........ worth it?

                                and i have read it i dont think my questions was answered =(... or im blind =P


                                well i ment your thoughts feedback?

                                no offence tinks but your hardly the type to get told to do something and do it without reason =P.. u always have a reason =P

                                even if you did you always have some feedback ATLEast..
