Hi Art,
 
I guess I should have been more specific.  I'm now using the Tempest fine-wire iridium plugs.  They're half the price of their Champions counterparts.  The Tempest sports newer technology and are reputed to last at least twice as long as the Champs.  I do know they don't foul like the standard plugs did and am very satisfied with the switch.

Pete,

Are you saying that because they are half the price you are using them? According to the price listed on Aircraft Spruce there is about a $4.00 difference. I am comparing Champion massive against Tempest massive. What I don't know is if they perform, so I would like to hear about good and bad experiences with them.

Half the price of Champions.  Why would you not use them?

All,

Would like to hear from everyone using the tempest spark plugs. Are you satisfied with them? Do you think they are better than Champion, and why? Are you using the massive or fine wire? Help me make an informed decision.

I am getting ready to order a new set of plugs. I currently use the RHB32E by Champion in my IO-550-N. I have no complaints with these plugs but wonder if the Tempest with their one piece resistor design is better as their ad would suggest.


Thank you for your input
