denso

Built on DENSO's advanced iridium-rhodium technology and the company's decades of leadership in ignition research and development as well, DENSO Iridium Racing® plugs are components of championship caliber. Using the same basic 0.4mm center electrode configuration as DENSO's Iridium Power® plug - it's simply the best available - DENSO's motorsports plug is further enhanced with a 0.8mm ground electrode of 100 percent platinum, special insulator material with 20 percent greater strength than conventional plugs, and other valuable features for hard-core race applications. Surface-gap, recessed, and ultra-compact 8mm plugs are available for a wide range of specialized racing engines. But unlike many suppliers, DENSO doesn't offer its best stuff only to a favored few in the racing world. DENSO Iridium Racing® plugs are available to anyone, right over the counter at distributors and retailers everywhere.

Features:
0.4mm iridium center electrode, the slimmest in the industry
Patented self-cleaning insulator/electrode design
Durable, reusable packaging protects spark plugs when not in use

Benefits:
Handles extreme compression and boost levels
Ultimate performance and durability
Maximizes track time, minimizes downtime

Ultra Fine Electrode

denso

By harnessing the power of Iridium, DENSO is suddenly able to shrink the surface area of the center electrode - the critical component of a spark plug. Unlike a typical platinum plug that has a 1.1mm diameter center electrode, DENSO Iridium Power plugs have the world's smallest center electrode measuring 0.4mm in diameter. This means that the voltage requirements are decreased while firing performance is greatly improved.

About IRIDIUM RACING Spark Plugs

Porsche Iridium Racing Spark Plugs - Motorsport-Grade Ignition Performance

Iridium Racing Spark Plugs are engineered for extreme performance environments where ignition precision, heat resistance, and consistency are critical. Designed for high-RPM, high-compression, and motorsport-focused Porsche engines, these spark plugs deliver a powerful, stable spark under the most demanding conditions.

Available from Design911, Porsche Iridium Racing spark plugs are manufactured using advanced iridium electrode technology to ensure reliable combustion at sustained high engine loads—making them ideal for track, race, and heavily tuned applications.

What Do Iridium Racing Spark Plugs Do?

Iridium Racing spark plugs provide precise and reliable ignition under extreme engine conditions.

Core Functions:

  • Deliver a strong, stable spark at high RPM.
  • Support efficient combustion in high-compression engines.
  • Resist heat-related breakdown during track use.
  • Reduce misfires under sustained load.
  • Maintain consistent ignition timing and performance.

High-quality ignition is essential for safe, high-performance engine operation.

Why Do Standard Spark Plugs Fail?

Standard spark plugs are not designed for prolonged high-load or motorsport use. Common failure causes include:

  • Electrode erosion at high temperatures.
  • Spark blowout under high compression or boost.
  • Heat range mismatch for tuned engines.
  • Carbon fouling during aggressive driving.
  • Reduced ignition stability at high RPM.

These failures can result in misfires, power loss, and increased engine stress during performance driving.

Why Upgrade to Iridium Racing Spark Plugs?

Iridium Racing plugs are purpose-built to exceed the limits of conventional spark plugs.

Upgrade Benefits:

  • Ultra-fine iridium electrodes for precise ignition.
  • Exceptional resistance to heat and wear.
  • Stable spark delivery at extreme RPM and load.
  • Optimised for motorsport and high-output engines.
  • Improved reliability during track and race use.

Upgrading ensures dependable ignition performance in demanding driving conditions.
