^^i got them before i saw the ad and before the D-sport review mag came out but from my experience just because it looks sick doesnt mean anything, i too thought it was a good choice since they did a review BUT i WAS SOO WRONG about that

I get like 3-5 mpg with these plugs, I have had zero probs so far. If you guys order a set make sure you order the right ones (be1) for the evo VIII and (dg1) for the IX.

Is that 3-5mpg "more", or...

?

tia

Looks like several other threads on these plugs missed the part about VIII and IX and the different reach??

Interesting findings:

Taken from EFI-101
++++++++++++++

My first test in the CO-2 chamber (eight plug) showed an increase in photon emission with the Pulstar vs the NGK sparkplug.

My guess is that the energy is released in a shorter time, which is what they state.

This would be similar to increasing the spark advance, this could result in a power increase.

The pressure inside the chamber was increased to 300 PSI using 100 PSI steps. The Pulstar started to NOT produce an even spark,
then as the pressure was increased to 400 PSI NO spark. The NTK's continued to spark evenly. The pressure was reduced to 100 PSI,
the Pulstar would NOT produce an even spark, very little firing if any.

What was found :

The Pulstar plug was damaged by high voltage required to fire into a chamber (cylinder) when the enviroment would be similar to a high compression or "boosted" engine.

I spoke to Lou, the inventor, he agreed, then stated that there was a problem with the construction of the insulator material.
He stated that he had a new design and would send me the new design Pulstars.
