It is general question concerning DENSO SPARK PLUG that is often.
What kind of vehicles are surface gap plugs used for?
These are plugs developed for racing, and there are many people who use these plugs in the All-Japan Road Race Championship JSB1000 class and in drag racing. Because the ground electrode is gone, there are the following advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages
[1]  When the engine is tuned so that the compression ratio is increased, these can avoid interference with the piston.
[2]  Because there are no excess projections into the combustion chamber, the combustion efficiency at high revolutions is improved.
[3]  Difficulties due to the ground electrode can be prevented.
Disadvantages
[1]  The ignitability becomes worse, and thus feeling and response at low and mid-revolutions deteriorates.
[2]  The engine characteristics become peaky; because of this, in the popular ST600 class, where conditions are severe, there are many people who use plugs with ground electrodes.
