![Question](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I tried a few plug searches and after reading a few post here I thought these were a good plug for higher boost applications. I know NGKs are the popular stuff but the plugs I wanted are not available unless I special order.
Anyways... is anyone real familiar with this plug?
Thanks in advance.

i run autolites. i have ever since i swapped them in my procharged truck. it would always idle rough with ngks. i swapped 2 different set same thing. put in a set of autolites and the truck smoothed out. i have autolites in my car right now running 15psi.

They were in another boosted project of mine. They suck man. They foul way easy and don't last long....cheap!!!! I just don't like the quality. But that's my opinion.

I have a set of 3911s in my garage... but I ended up ordering a set of NGK BR7EF plugs. Im going to be running a minimum of 15psi.... so Ill give my 3911s to my buddy that has a higher CR NA motor.

I normally run .025 on the 3911, never tried them that tight. I have used the 3911 at 1900hp, but normally switch around 1500hp to the retracted tip. The extended tip should stay cleaner but could be more likely to glow/overheat in the high power engines. The NGK stuff has always worked well for me, but the plating makes them hard to read. I use a hotter version of the 3911 in my daily driver because I wanted resistor plugs, they seem to only last around 10,000 miles before I notice the idle surging.
