    50-50

    If they work they work 100% of the time. At 50-50 rating you have the BS artists the dreamers etc.

    All you need is enough spark to ignite the mixture. More spark than that *if there is more* doesn't give better burn propigation.

    I've seen similar items many times. Most are just an additional spark gap in series. ie: Nology.

    If this was the greates thing ever NGK or Champion would have bought them out, and these plugs would be in EVERY new car today.

    99% of the gas saving gizmos out there either don't work, or actually use more gas. Don't drink the Kool-Aid.

    i would stick with a good set of NGK's...they are specifically designed for japanese cars and work the best of any plug...

    i have tried every gizmo and brand on my integra...every one of them makes it misfire...NGK's...no problem....

    every japanese car mechanic i have talked to says never run anything but NGK in japanese cars...so thats what i do, and i get great mileage and power...

    TOM4BREN--- Ditto. I completely agree with everything you stated. You hit everything right on the mark. Well said.

    Especially, "High Performance" cars like Lamborghini, Ferrari, Viper, Shelby, McClaren, ZR-1 & ZO6 Corvettes, etc. If we look at those cars as a Mentor/Role Model of what is essentially good by OEM factory standards, and using likewise products in our VX's, then we as VX owner's will be OK.

    before I went to Moab last year....I considered these as replacements for my stock plugs...but found lots of conflicting info on them on the web. Bottom line...I went with the Denso Iridium's because I couldn't find enough positive feedback on the Pulstar's.

    P.S.---I had great luck with SplitFire's in my Harley...that bike seemed to LOVE them! More MPG...more neck snapping torque! Put them in my Ram and I didn't notice any gains...but that bike sure seemed to likey!

    Whoah - I'm not used to anyone taking me serious around here. I'd better be more careful about what I say from now on.
