Anyone use Champion S57C plugs? I was thinking of using these plugs instead of the TR6's I currently use. The TR6's are just not strong enough for the spray. I've only melted a few, but I've heard that the champion S57C plugs hold up a lot better to spray. My only concern is if they are ok for regular driving. I heard they foul very easy. Is this true? If so, how can I prevent it? If not, are there any plugs that are better than the TR6's that anyone would recommend for a 200 -250 shot?
Thanks, Sean

Yeah, tune the car a little better and if your not overshooting the plug it wont melt. Flip side, use a plug thats colder, less projected tip and risk melting pistons. If your over 175 shot you can step up to a TR7/or 8.

I'm currently spraying a 200 shot, and it melts a few plugs every now and then. I want to throw in some 101 and up it to 250. I am at 5500 feet above sea level (500rwhp here on the 200's) so without detonation I think I'll be ok. I won't be running the 250's all the time, just when I need it.
