Pulse Plug - more power - better economy etc

Pulse plugs boost horsepower, torque and fuel economy

June 10, 2007 Significantly increased torque and horsepower for almost any petrol vehicle, exceptional fuel economy benefits, a five minute screw-in installation process, no decrease in longevity or reliability and a miserly US$25 per unit price. These may sound like outrageous claims, but Pulstar are confident their "pulse plugs" are the next step in the evolution of the spark plug. Pulse plugs use a pulse cycle to draw the same amount of power as a normal spark plug, store it and release it at about 20,000 times the wattage. The fuel in your cylinders burns much more quickly and completely, creating extra cylinder pressure and resulting in more horsepower and torque for each revolution, not to mention wasting much less fuel in the process. They screw right in where your old plugs came out, and require no further modification. As a performance mod, they deliver more horsepower for your buck than just about any alternative - and their increased economy should see them paying for themselves within 12 months. Fantastic stuff!

Never be fooled by any device that is fitted between the ignition coil and the distributor, and/or distributor and the spark plugs (sometimes in place of ignition wires) for which claims of increased power, multiple sparks, and better fuel economy are made. These devices have come and gone over the last 50 years, and usually consists of a sealed container in which the spark is forced to jump an additional gap or is partially induced to ground on its way to the spark plug gap. These devices can also be cleverly demonstrated to produce sparks the human eye perceives as being "more powerful." The only "increase" a gullible consumer can expect from these devices is an undesirable increase in load on their vehicle's ignition system.

Wouldn't trust anything from Kings!

Well, these don't sit between the plug and wires, they are plugs essentially. Interesting but I'm skeptical for one reason. When I go to the news section on someone's website I expect to see news releases, articles written about the company or products by a thrid part, etc. THEIR news section has two links. One is an article that's pure marketing gibberish and no real independantly substantiated facts and the other links to their own ad in a mag. Not much for news.

I think Brian likes finding these things out in the market then hoping someone will be his test subject and try it out for him

Forget the plugs, I got a TAG for sale real cheap

I've forgotten. Whose bright idea was that?

Yup! I just like to throw things out there for discussion - all part of the fun!
