Split fire said their plugs would add 5HP. I put one in a 3 HP lawnmower and I am pretty sure it didn’t have 8 HP.

I used to be a big Champion plug fan. Then when I was parts manager at the Hyundai dealership in '88, we'd have new cars factory equipped with Champions that wouldn't start right off the transporter. Tech would swap in some new NGKs and the problem disappeared.
Champion may have solved that quality problem by now. So just run what runs best for you, and steer clear of the "gimmick" plugs.

I'll bet NGK can't do that.

Don't have that issue but maybe they should use that for marketing

Worked for Hyundai too, never heard of that. Did have a problem with engines dropping out after slight frontend collision.

We also discovered that the maximum mileage without ever changing the oil on the '88-'89 Hyundai was 17-18,000 miles. More than one customer failed to ever change the oil. They learned exactly how much a new long block cost, installed.
