The spark can only follow one path at a time. You get one spark regardless of how many side electrodes you have. Kinda gimmicky if you ask me.

NGK TR-55 for N/A applications, TR-6 for F/I or nitrous.

They suck - had problems with two sets of them on my 01 SS. Spark was either weak or not consistant. Swapped out and went back to TR-55 and had no problems. Also have liked Bosche Platinum 4's.
