Drivetrain should I be running brisk plugs?
should I be running brisk plugs?
I have a CAI, 15% pulley & exhaust. Last night I put brisk plugs in and while taking off from a light my car fell on its face and the SES light came on. Expecting a misfire code I went to the autoparts store and scanned it. Came up the p0130 or whatever the o2 sensor is. I cleared it and have been driving normal and it hasn't come back. my question is, should I have switch back to the regular plugs or keep running the brisk?

I used the DR12S gapped at 0.028 and they were great but they do not last long. The 12 is one range colder than the 14. The DR14S should have worked fine. What gap did you use? Maybe a wire did not fit on quite right. I have read of people having problems with the Brisk plugs right out of the box, maybe the quality control is not great.
What gap should the brisk be? I have not messed with a plug that wasn't pre-gapped in at least 15 years. I guess I should have not just trusted they would be. What part number is the NGK
I have to agree. I attempted to run the Brisk and had not so stellar results. Even some Misfires. They were gapped correctly.

The only advantage to Platinum and Iridium plugs is they last 100K miles. In terms of material, they are among the worst conductors. Silver is #1; Copper is #2. Only disadvantage is they have to be replaced every 30K miles.
I'm running Brisk DOR14LGS plugs, and they work great.
I highly doubt the P0130 code is related. My '06 MCS threw that code once last Spring. Was a fluke and never came back after I cleared the computer, and that was when I was still running the NGK BKR7EQUP plugs. However, if the plugs were not properly torqued, a small amount of air could be getting by, which will change your air-to-fuel ratio (AFR).
Are you still running OEM O2 sensors? If you have Bosch, read this thread: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...-obd-code.html.

Nothing magic about this plug. It is nothing more than the stock NGK except it is 1 heat range colder. Stock is BKR6.
I've been running stock plugs in mine with a CAI, 15% pulley & JCW exhaust. Been great so far.
