Default E3 Diamond Spark plugs Real or Not?

Don't know if this has already been discussed.So if it has I apologize for this thread.Has anyone tried these plugs? Is this another type of crap like the Tornado insert? Thanks in advance for any and all info.

I have not seen any independant testing on these plugs. Nothing but company materials.

I saw these too but have not seen any testing done on at least mustang V8 or V6. They look like a good SP but I think I'll wait and see if someone picks them up and tells us about them.

Spark plugs are one thing that I'm really leery about.

^ I second that, until someone or more people talk about them in good ways then I might consider them until then I'll stick with the other trusted brands.

K Well Then Heres My Story......Ok So its Not About A Mustang....I Also Have A Charger...But I Figure Yall Would Want To Know AnyWay......I Bought A Set Of E3s For My 06 Charger And Rushed Home To Put Them On....A Million Years Later I Finally Got Them In( Dont Buy A Dodge You Have To Take Off THe Entire Upper To Change The Right Side Plugs) Anyways...I Finally Got Them In Excited To Feel the Power They Claim To Have....I Started The Car....And The Car Sounded Mint...So I Went For Rip Around The Block....The Second I Got Onto The Street And Steped On It....IT HAPPENED....POP POP BANG STUTTER STUTTER POP BWWWAAAAAA! The Thing Ran So Rich Is Shook And Shimmyd And Stalled Out. I Thought WTF......Maybe I Screwed Up The Throttle Body ( Also had To be removed To Change Plugs On A Dodge) Or Maybe The Temp Sensor Cause I Cleaned Everything Up....So I Thought I Would Just Drive The Speed limit And Not Lay Into Hoping The Comp Would Learn About The new Plugs And The Sensor I Just Cleaned....Well It Didnt...I Checked Pipes...Everything Was Connected...I Checked Sensors....All Good....I Reset The Comp....Nothing....Everytime I Stepped On It....POP POP STUTTER STUTTER BWWAAAA!....AAAND Stall. So I Ordered Up Some NGK G Powers Just To Say I Tried Everything Before Going To The Stealership....Well A Million Years Later...One Ripped Out Intake And Dodge Guts Everywhere....The Operation Went Well And The NGKs Were In....Got In The Car Started It Up Went Around The Block And Floored It........The Car Runs Perfect..No Hesitation Nothing..As If There Was No E3 Problems Ever.......I Went Home And Got The E3s Back In The House To Look At Them....One Was Already Burnt To Crap Another You can Tell It Was Arcing out To The Side Of The Cyl... And Another Looked OK....The Ones That Were Archin To The Cyl The Tip Of The Plug Still Looked Like I Just bought Em......Thank God I Just Put Those In My Dodge And Not My beloved Betty...Long Story Short....I Will NEVER Recomend Theese Plugs To Anyone...I Dont care What Joe Elroy Says...Theese Plugs IN My oppinion Are Junk.....It Says Right On The BOX....RESULTS MAY VARY....Take Heed My Blue Oval Brothers....Take Heed.

I used these in my 300ZX and they were utter sh*t. I bought them as an alternative to the $10/plug. Didn't fix my problem. I then went and bought the right plugs (nearly $80 later) and it ran right. Get proper plugs and gap them. End of story.

08V6, please stop capitalizing EVERY word, it makes it hard to read.

I was recently thinking of those e3 plugs. I never heard of them before, but I'm glad I didn't waste my money. I have 56,000 mile on my v6 and noticed power loss and gas mileage decrease. I pulled the oe plugs and found them all red, almost torch red as if to match the color of my car, and burnt. I replace them with motorcraft nickel alloy and since then I have noticed fuel mileage gains and I even had a cadillac sts for lunch that day.
