y2daniel1981 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Anyone have any experience with e3 spark plugs in the 4th gen turbo models? e3 has them listed as available for the 05 legacy gt. I know they're kind of a gimmicky plug, but I have used them in a few na cars with decent results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bdubs Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Don't even waste your money. Stick with the OEM recommended NGK plugs. Going with a different plug will just give you headaches down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strizzy Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Use only the OEM NGK iridium plugs. Only plug that doesn't cause problems. My bad luck build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2daniel1981 Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 I know that most of you on there say use the OEM Iridiums, and I've had good success with NGKs before, just wondering if anyone has had an experience with e3's in their LGTs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 No, only use NGK's. Hey it's your engine, do what you want. Then come back and tell us how we were wrong. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

Strizzy Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Stock NGK plugs at stock heat range. I'm highly modded and running E85 with stock plugs. My bad luck build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JermTheElf Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 The previous owner used them in my car. When they pulled them out to troubleshoot a misfire, they were all red. This was Motive Auto (shameless plug- go to them if you need work done in new England) and Alberto and josh said they'd never seen plugs that bad. Just do OEM.

y2daniel1981 Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 I know e3s can be good in a n/a car, but thinking about them in a f/i car I had some concerns and was just looking to see if anyone had any experience with their LGTs with them. The only way I could see them being any benefit in a f/i vehicle is if you highly tune it to work with the e3s, and personally I don't think a massive tune would be worth it for some plugs lol. Again this thread was just out of curiosity to see if anyone with an LGT had experience with them, not a "gee, should I use these?" thread. Thank you JermTheElf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
