Someone try these

This is the place to ask questions about your engine components like cams, valves, pistons… just anything that is generally "engine" specific. This also includes questions about exhaust systems such as exhaust manifolds, piping size, mufflers, ect...

They're getting a lot of hype and pretty good reviews from what i've read. A bit expensive, but these might be worth looking at.

if these really work as advertised I see lots of high-RPM applications........faster ignition means you could potentially use greater overlap cams

Really expensive and not to be used on modded cars.

why not used on modded cars???????

Seems to me that a modded car would actually like these better, and be able to take advantage of the so called gains of it. If you are adding more air the engine control unit wants to add more fuel, which is why a lot of higher (not highly) modded cars see a dip in gas milage. I would assume that the bigger, better spark would take advantage of this added fuel and air. I know my sark plugs "go out" or need to be changed more often since adding all these mods to it. I don't know, I was justing wanting to know why you made that very "vauge" comment.
The powerful spark of Pulstar™ ignites fuel more precisely
and this answers your statement as well:
Pulstar model recommendations are for stock, unmodified engines. If you have added an aftermarket turbocharger, supercharger, nitrous or any other product that increases displacement or compression to your engine you will require a colder heat range pulse plug in order to avoid possible damage to your engine. For these applications please see our other great product at DirectHits or call us at 888-800-6700
btw - 24$ a plug? These things better last more than 10k miles like mine do now :lol:

proof of concept :)
The idea works, guys, it's just a matter of whether they effectively apply it. How many snake-oil salesmen have SAE articles to back them up? Though honestly I'd trust the directhits more, more flexibility and room for expansion, like combining it with iridiums.

ok so this company has a local branch that has been offering free plugs for testing and dyno time. so far on the srt they advance timing about 4-6* depending on boost levels, for a stock srt this is ok, but for any big turbo or high boost stock turbo car this is a really bad idea. thats where the "not for use in modified cars" comes in, any vehicle where a timing advance will be dangerous they are not recommended.
