NGK IFR5T-8N Iridium Spark Plug – Stock No. 3508
The NGK IFR5T-8N is a fine-wire iridium spark plug designed for clean, reliable ignition. It delivers a strong, stable spark that improves cold starts, throttle response and fuel consistency. Iridium resists wear, so performance stays steady over a long service life.
The iridium centre electrode needs less voltage to fire. This helps under load and at higher RPM, especially on engines with direct injection or turbocharging. A platinum-tipped ground electrode and built-in resistor reduce electrical noise and misfire risk.
Use this plug as an OE-quality replacement or when refreshing an engine before a remap. Heat range 5 keeps it suitable for many standard or lightly modified engines that specify this rating. Always match the heat range and design to your engine.
Confirm fitment using the vehicle lookup or the Vehicle Fitment tab before ordering.
