Spark Plug, Iridium, 16IR5Y

MSD iridium spark plugs will fire up your engine for optimum performance. These plugs have been engineered from the inside out for efficient combustion to create the most power possible for your setup. MSD's proprietary design features center tips made from iridium--a super hard material that promotes the best spark as well as increased resilience. They also feature copper center cores, special ceramic material to enhance the dielectric strength of the plug housing, and machine-ground straps enhanced with Yttrium to handle the heat of your high horsepower ignition. On the street, at the track, or up and over the trails, MSD iridium spark plugs will outperform and outlive the competition. 

  • Proprietary plug design inside and out
  • Designed for use on high-performance vehicles that utilize high output ignition systems
  • Machined electrode increases exposure to the flame to improve combustion
  • MSD’s proprietary ceramic formula provides the highest dielectric strength
  • Yttrium ground electrode reduces the chance of pre-ignition
  • Iridium tip improves cold starts
  • All spark plugs tested prior to packaging and shipping
  • Unique insulator design improves spark isolation
  • Lower voltage Requirements for longer coil life
  • Iridium has a 40 Percent higher melting point than nickel

MSD Performance

1Racers never stop experimenting as they search for every way to wring out more power or handling performance to to gain an edge over the competition. The team at MSD is no different as we strive to deliver the products you need to meet your performance goals. We continue to innovate and invent components and technology that deliver performance and reliability with products that are easy to use and install. Over the course of 40-plus years, MSD Performance has been driving the development of innovative components that helped shape the way our cars race and perform. From super speedways to road courses, land speed racing to top fuel dragsters, and of course your traditional hot rod, MSD has provided the components to fire nearly anything in motorsports. Early on, MSD focused squarely on ignition systems with revolutionary products like the multiple sparking CD ignition, timing and rev controls, billet aluminum distributors and the Pro-Mag, an incredible breakthrough in power and endurance. Today MSD is developing electronics for your entire powertrain. The Atomic EFI systems for the LS engine platform and throttle body are now complemented with a transmission controller. Our DynaForce Starters and Alternators ensure that your engine cranks over to fire up and the Alternators keep it charged. MSD is poised to deliver components that work and communicate together to provide performance and value.
