Does anyone know of any specific item numbers for non-resistor
plugs for a 98 EJ25 normally aspirated?

I want the resistance between hv input to the center electrode to
be at a bare minimum.

I see the Champion 3346 are listed as non-resistor, but it could still
have suppression with high resistance. Does anyone know the
actual resistance for this plug?

Autolite XP3924 is also listed as non-resistor, but same thing. Does
anyone know the specs for the resistance? I can't find the details
online as if these are big secrets.

Any help would be appreciated.

Have you got some unusual setup? These cars seem to be a bit finicky for ignition, usually need the oem plugs & wires for normal performance.

Just curious what you're out to do.

Not on the car until I get the non-resistors.

It is a "plasma jet ignition" - it literally burns water on contact and the more compression and air you cram onto this form of plasma, the bigger it grows - completely opposite of conventional spark, cdi, msd, peaking caps, etc...

When it is properly tuned, there are no detectible emissions on a 5 gas analyzer.

I'm interested in fuel economy, not racing applications.

Any significant impedance in the path will prohibit the impulse from happening so it needs little to no resistance.

If anyone is interested in non-resistor plugs, here is what I found:

I wound up ordering the NGK R5671A-11, #6596 - it is the V-Groove racing plugs and they should fit perfectly. The total for 4 is about $15 delivered.
The response I got from NGK is that the only plug avail in the states for the EJ25 they make that are intended for a Subaru is the NGK BCP5ES, #7496 - that is a standard geometry non-resistor plug. These are only a couple $ a piece too.

Both of the above can be ordered through any local car parts store.
