Will these work better over stock or aftermarket plugs or is it all hype

Saw these too, I guess somebody would have to try them to see how much better they are than conventional plugs - if at all.

I dont know if that works, but they are $24.95 each and all that lab info sure sounds really well done and tested, if someone gives this a shot please post results.

If race team's don't use them they don't work.

Here is some other stuff they offer:

https://www.pulstarplug.com/applicat...cfm#DirectHits

Thing only thing that turns me off about purchasing these and trying them is that they have the same plug referenced for the VIII and IX. I believe the IX plugs are shorter, so maybe the Direct Hits packs are an option? Of course this isn't the first time I've seen this happen on a website that sells sparkplugs for our cars.

You might be right, or it might be the fact that they aren't heavily advertised. I've never heard of them until I was searching around on another site. Either way, I'd still be interested in trying them, but I'd like to actually get them tested somehow.

You might be right, I just haven't passed on reccomendations of bad products to lots of people

Honestly, of all the gizmos and gadgets, electric powered super chargers, gasoline additives that ad 5mpg, tornado fan blades to insert in your intake piping, you really think that these thing work as promised and you have never seen them for sale/advertised/in use.... I think there a sham, I would loved to be proven wrong!

Are they JDM? You can tell because when you eat them you always fart to the right.

If they happen to be in the burnt Ti with carbon finish I'm down for 3 sets.

Haha watch them go in then as soon as the first spark plug (not spark, whatever its called) ignited it will fuse the electrode to the piston in one huge arc of glory.

That would be comical.

Bought these plugs havent installed yet...couple of days...Im thinkin they will work..the science is there...Ive been researching about ignitions, and from what i can gather..its all about efficiency...and the only difference between plugs and what they offer is exactly that...lower detonation, lower knock through better spark and higher rates of spark...these plugs "supposedly" generate a larger arc through plasma..electric and fuel bonding....I also looked at the HKS ignition amp...which basically does the same thing...except that the timing is tuned alot better to your stroke...generating more spark so that it can't miss at any RPM...I dont do alot of racing...so im thinking these will do the job for a quarter of the price..we'll see...
