Platnum plugs are no good for N20 and don't get the ZEX plugs either they are sh*t. I just used good old NGK plugs... heat range 6 or 7 depending on the size of the N20 shot.

everyone says platinum plugs are bad but no one answered his question. I know that platinum plugs require less voltage to spark than copper plugs. Thats about it.

Reason: LESS not MORE

It is because the plat coating mixes with an oxidizer and there inability to fire fast enough @ a low enough heat range. That is just my opinion not a fact.

because if something goes wrong and u run a lean condition you will bun the copper plug up before the piston. plat being a stronger material, wont burn up fast therefore creating engine damage.
For the plug tip to melt, then detonation/pre-ignition = engine damage has already occured. No plug tip could be just as disastrous.

I remember i read it some where....back in the day....on se-r.net
Well we are using zex plugs and have had no faults, The car performs and dyno's the same numbers n/a, and on the spray has no problems, though we are only at a 50 shot. This ve puts down 210 whp n/a . Just our results, we also use them our turbo cars. I used to use ngk cold plugs and the car rand like crap and would not last long before it would start to misfire.
