Don't bother, why pay 4x as much for a plug that lasts 2x as long.

Using expensive matches doesn't make a better fire

people have probs with Iridium denso's, for most uses, whether it street, or track, most tuners would stick with the Subaru recommended ngk's. Do a search on here mate, it has been discussed over and over and over..................

Not all of them, but some are not very robust, tips break off, sometimes insulator chips etc, could cost a piston and worse, do a search on here.
