Was running Bosch platinums but decided to give these a try. Noticed a difference as soon as I started the motor. More power and smoother running. Gas mileage is up at least 2-3 miles per gallon. Will definitely be sticking with these from now on.For a long time and I get great performance out of them now that I have a another vehicle I purchased this for my truck Thank you so much greatNumber 5 cylinder fouled often causing a dead cylinder. E3's burn hotter and more efficient. Problem solved 232,000 miles later !So I purchased a crate motor 2 years ago from jugs automotive when I purchase the engine I purchased AC Delco iridium spark plugs from Amazon after engine installation and spark plug installation I developed a knocking and pinging noise I replaced the knock sensor and of course it already had the new plugs wires cap rotor and everything else under the hood I do know at the time where we get fuel changed the quality of gas for the winter I then started using premium fuel to stop the pinging at low rpm under load . Well well well . I went ahead and bought a set of E3 spark plugs oh my gosh throttle response amazing idle amazing no more pinging and the 5.7 runs amazing hard to believe the E3 changed the engine that much !Some people say they have snake oil to sell you and e3's are a joke but I'm here to tell you they work phenomenalInstalled them the day I got’em along with some Ford racing 9mm plugs and immediately noticed a huge difference in power and responsiveness on my 93 foxbody.I put these in an got better gas milage more power and run smooter then b4Amazon sent me the wrong ones, I bought the right ones from a local brick and mortar. Amazon paid for the return and refunded my money.These are now the 3 set of these I have put in a car. This set went into a 3.1L 175hp Pontiac. Noticeable improvement in throttle response, and top end pull. BUT - don't expect to blown away. Combined with a Thrush baffled muffler, K&N drop in air filter, new OEM coils, and MSD 8.5mm plug wires, I probably netted +10% HP..... More impressive, my combined mileage has improved from 19.5mpg to 23.5mpg. Again, this is the combo of parts that achieved this, not the E3s alone.... For the mileage and meager performance increase, the full combo was well worth $300....***UPDATE*** 11.20.2020 I no longer own this car, but felt the need to update with other findings. Not all cars are happy with these. Most recently, a 2004 Grand Cherokee with the non-HO 4.7, responded poorly with rough idle and a top end that just felt off - like peak power started to roll off earlier. They were removed and factory spec copper plugs put back in. My 70 'Cuda was not happy either (340 stroked to 408, MSD distributorless ignition 6LS, Holly Dominator EFI). She has quite a bit of cam and already idles a touch rough. After the E3's she didn't want to idle at all despite attempts to tune the 6LS and Dominator systems to compensate. She was just plain angry. Never even bothered with a test drive. Autolite Platinums were installed. A 2000 Grand Caravan 3.0 v6 also suffered a poor idle, and actually saw an almost 1mpg loss. Autolite Platinums were installed.Perfect fit..work great..
