You know that the denso iridiums are better right? IXU24 or for those of you running mapped CSL's IXU27.....

Just a brief explanation why.....

http://www.sparkplugs.co.uk/pages/technical/iridium_spark_plugs.htm

I run the IXU27, spark plug runs cooler leading to less chance of detonation on track...

However marginally more heat is passed to head and subsequent under bonnet temps may increase....but not that you would notice....:wink:
