Default Denso iridium plugs?

Anyone have any input on these? I just bought a set from Automotion, they have just one electrode, vs. the stock 3. They were listed as being for the 993, but before installing I wanted a second (or more) opinion. Thanks in advance, and happy holidays!

I've been using these in the TT for a month or so, as recommended by Devek No misfires and I'm happy so far. Oh and the cuts and scrapes on my arm are mostly healed from working on the #5 for a whole weekend.

They are in my car right now. My car is misfiring at WOT but it's not clear if it's the plugs. It's getting diagnosed next week.

CJ, #5 or #6? #5 should be pretty easy going in from the top.

It was definately 5, I couldn't get it to break loose. Is your car misfiring on 91
octane or 100? Misfires at high boost with 100 octane seem to come and go with mine.I may make an ignition change in the future.

I wouldn't dare touch that crap Denso Iridium. My fiancee had them in her audi S4 and one of the tips broke off!! I kid you not, i saw the thing when she removed it after she was getting misfires. Never ever would I install Denso iridium. PM me if you wanna see the pics.
