E3 spark plugs: anyone try them?

I was at a snowmobile show last weekend and one of the exhibitors was featuring E3 spark plugs in his booth (http://www.e3sparkplugs.com/). He had a small charging device and tested various plugs (regular and fine tip) and the spark was quite minor. The E3, on the other hand, produced a veritable lightning storm.

Anyone give these a go yet? I was thinking of maybe trying a set in my VTR.



cheers

don't waste you're money i put a set in my 85 z28 with a 350 crate motor and fouled out 2 of them with in a month i then removed them and put a set of ngk's in there and haven't had a problem since, over a year now

seriously not worth the money, there now only 6 bucks a plug, i paid 12 each when they first came out and was disappointed not only with the life but the performance lacked as well

Well... I was curios enough to try and find it in their charts... But there is nothing that seems to fit the VTR... So I couldn't even find a price... Tried cross referencing the NGK and Denso numbers with no luck...

Like I told my Automotive students for 34 years, "If there was a better spark plug, don't you think the car manufacturers would be using them".

Also, at an NHRA Career Opportunities Fair several years ago, a student asked the drivers present (including John Force and Tony Pedregon) what spark plug they used. There were 7 drivers present, and all 7 answered either NGK or Autolite.

So stick with NGK for your Honda.
