sorry for that.
From what i hear they are just a gimmick. Nothing wrong with standard NGKs. Perform perfectly and cost a fraction the price.

No, not in the Chim, but I do have them in my 'daily' (Golf VR6). I have no idea if they've made an improvement to the Golf as I had quite a few things brought up to scratch at the same time... They're apparently quite popular with the Dub boys but I've not heard anyone suggest they're an alternative for the RV8. I've got NGK Iridium jobbies in the Tiv

You only get one spark they are for longer service intervals that's all grooved electrodes more electrodes

i fitted some of these to a Pug 205 1.9 gti "back in the day" and not only did they not help, but it actually ran worse. I wasnt the only one to find this either

Contrary to popular belief they are more prone to cold fouling but that's probably because the centre electrode is so shrouding
