pulstar spark plugs

anyone have any experience running these? http://www.pulstarplug.com/index.html
Do you think it would make a differnece if you burn alcohol?
Guess that's more of a Pulstar Rep question...

 

Honestly, I wouldn't run anything but a NGK plug in your Subaru. I have seen many others from Bosch to Autolite, and some others that create misfire issues. If your going to run race (leaded) fuel, then just run basic copper plugs and change them more often.

 

Capacitor in your spark plug. What a crock of crap. That would cause a delay in spark action. I don't believe that crap for a second. NGK is the only way to go, my 2 cents.

 

They might work just as well as NGK copper plugs, but at the price they are asking- why even bother. I am 99% sure they won't work any better than NGK copper plugs.

The same can be said of just about every "high tech" "new and improved design" "Bestest EVAR" "revolutionary" spark plug out there. I have yet to see a different design spark plug make more power on a dyno than a standard copper plug.

 

they claim and show dyno graphs of "only changing to pulstar plugs" between dyno graphs on a 350z and it gaining a peak of 10whp. It may be a one time fluke but it had to happen once to publish it. i say stick with the tried and true or try them on a metro of some pos you could care less about.

 

If the plugs were any good, the OEMs and F1 would be all over it. As they aren't, the plugs aren't worth their weight in dog excrement.

 

lol thank you for all of your valuable input. The only reason I was interested is due to the fact that I run E85 with a full flex conversion kit and they are supposed to help with cold starts and burning all of the fuel in the cylinder as ethanol burns hotter. Idk I can't afford them at the moment but I see most swear upon the NGks. To be honest I run Autolites and I average 21 mpg with a full tank of E85 so I guess I would have to test them to know, but not at $25 a pop.

 

Sorry if I was harsh but I remember the split fire plugs and all the hoopla they created. The current OEM spark plug is the result of 100+ years of R&D...

 

No offense taken. In theory it does make sense. The spark plug technology hasn't changed for 50+ years. Only 50 watts of spark. If you are trying to ignite a fuel which burns at a higher temp then you would need a "hotter" spark to do so. Advancing timing on your car is almost essential doing the same thing just allowing you to force more air and fuel into the chamber. Resulting in an increase of horsepower and torque.
I am simply interested in it because I burn ethanol and there could be a potential for better performance with a "hotter" spark. i.e. cold starts and fuel economy.
I just wanted to see how many of people are running ethanol with a kit. I think I am aiming more for that audience.
