BRISK Silver Racing Spark Plugs
BRISK PLUGS
Prevent detonation and improve performance!
ALTA performance is finally offering what customers are asking for! Spark plugs! High performance spark plugs go hand and hand with high performance cars, and we can now satisfy the customer’s needs!
When searching for the ultimate spark plugs we looked to an industry leader Brisk! Brisk offers many types of spark plugs ranging from copper to Silver electrode. Most people are familiar with the Iridium, or platinum electrode spark plugs, but Brisk specializes in something no one else offers, Silver Electrodes!
Silver is the best thermal (heat) conductor of all metals
- Allows for a wide spark plug heat range
- Excellent heat dissipation under max power
- Excellent resistance to fouling under light load operation
Silver is the best electrical conductor of all metals
- Most free electrons
- Best power delivery
- Most powerful spark

Construction:
- 1.5 mm Silver Fine Wire Center Electrode
- Reduces stress and wear on your coil and other ignition components
- Fires properly even if partially fouled, where standard plugs will fail
Excellent for:
- Standard and High compression engines
- Forced induction applications
- Nitrous applications
- Methanol/ethanol injection
- LPG
- Any hard to ignite type of fuel applications
- High RPM race engines where a short time for the ignition coil saturation is
- Beneficial even for old vehicles with a weak ignition systems and/or excessive oil consumption
Tapered or Cut-Back Ground Electrode:
- Provides sharp edges for easy spark discharge
- Excellent spark exposure to the air/fuel mixture
- Faster flame front propagation in the initial stages of ignition due to reduced ground electrode obstruction
High dielectric strength:
- Fine wire center electrode (not just tip) increases the thickness of insulator between the center electrode and the spark plug shell for higher mechanical and dielectric strength.
BRISK SILVER RACING SPARK PLUG Low Required Supplied Ignition Voltage - is achieved by utilization of optimized diameter Silver enter electrode, along with tapered ground electrode. Silver is the best thermal and electrical conductor of all metals and provides far superior electron flow for best possible spark plug spark delivery. This spark plug feature is beneficial in forced induction applications, or applications where the ignition system is pushed to the limit in modified power applications and applications with hard to ignite fuels such as alcohol, LPG, Nitro methane and other. Brisk Silver Plug Lower Required Supplied Ignition Voltage is also beneficial for easier cold starts and operation under partially fouled spark plug condition caused by A/F management problems, oil consumption and other. Small diameter of the spark plug center electrode allows for thicker ceramic insulator walls and increased distance between the spark plug center electrode and spark plug shell walls. Increased spark plug center el. to spark plug shell distance, and spark plug special thick design insulator provides exceptional spark plug dielectric strength, and keeps the spark plug from dielectric breakdown in the most extreme working environments.
For Cooper’s and Cooper S Models w/std. S/C Pulley use BRSK-DR14S
For Cooper S Model’s w/15% or larger S/C Pulley Upgrade (or JCW Cars) use BRSK-DR12S

R56 Panel Filter AMP-INT-106
High Flow Foam Filter for your R56!
The ALTA panel filter is not just a normal panel filter replacement like many others. The older R53 Mini air box was made pretty well in that the portion above and below the filter is very open. The New R56 filter is much different!
The lower portion of the R56 filter has very little room for air to travel across the entire filter. We saw room for improvement in this filter by making it slightly offset and slightly thinner. This simple change allows for more air to be drawn across the entire filter. Besides that, it is a high flow foam filter, which like all our other filters provides less restriction, and the ability to clean it for the life of the car.
From the above diagram you can see how much thicker the OEM filter is and how far it hangs down. The Alta filter provides roughly 2 times the volume of air under the filter. Dyno results will follow very soon! Installation of this filter can be done in 5 minutes of work and be clean hundreds of times before needing replacement.

Panel Air Filter
Introducing the ALTA Performance™ dual stage, “Open Cell” foam, drop-in Panel Filter.
Instead of clogging up the landfills with yet another paper air filter, try the ALTA option. Introducing the ALTA Performance™ dual stage, “Open Cell” foam, drop-in Panel Filter. The more you use it, the more it defies dirt and let’s air in. Rinse clean and re-oil for nearly unlimited re-use. Now that’s environmentally friendly.
The ALTA Performance™ dual stage foam drop in panel filter provides maximum power gains while still removing harmful particulates from your intake air charge. Paper and gauze filters only trap dirt on the surface of the filter. As the filter gets dirty the surface will begin to restrict the airflow to your motor. The ALTA Performance™ foam filter will trap dirt in the air charge on the multiple different levels of the 3 dimensional foam matrix. As the filter gets "dirty" it will not restrict airflow. The ALTA MINI Performance™ panel filter has a large surface area and is produced in a vivid blue to visibly show the user when the filter needs to be cleaned. Easy to clean and re-oil for years of use.
