Yes. If you do a search for Brisk plugs in this forum, you'll find a few testimonies I've written about them. They are great.

Hey Grabber thanks for the info and thread link ......just a couple of questions ...how much boost are you running and what gap worked for you ?????....This will sound crazy but I ran the stock plugs for the first 15,000 miles and not a single problem and that was with the stock gap (.054).....then I changed plugs to the agsf12fm1(lightning plug) and had to reduce the gap because of blowout ....now its .035 ......weird huh ?????.....I even upgraded the coil packs (60,000 volt) thinking that was the problem....and I have a methanol injection kit that has been there the whole time......so anyways not real impressed with these plugs but they are not bad.....so Im looking for something better .....Thanks again for the input!!!

I'm running 8 lbs out of my Kenne Bell. On the full-strap plugs (Autolites, Motorcraft...) I had to squeeze them down to .025" to get them to fire. On the Brisk plugs I've been runing a .030" gap and they work great. I've heard of folks running the Autolites at a .032" gap with light boost, but that just never worked out for me, I went through a LOT of plugs trying to figure out the gap on those POS's...

Let me know how they work...I'm usually pretty leery about crazy designs...those seem kinda hokey to me...I'll probably be sticking with the silver racing plugs for my ride...how do you set the gap on those LGS's anyways?

You dont gap them they are pregapped with the design .....the only reason I think they might be good is I watched an independent test that was trying to call BS on the plug ....the vehicle was a Mustang Cobra with stock coils and 14 lbs of boost and the dyno sheet showed a pretty good gain....they were impressed......so who knows!!
