So, I was browsing the internet for interesting car products and stumbled across this site, http://www.pulstarplug.com/ tell me your impression.

This I think in principle may be a good idea on slightly older vehicles with ignition coils.

I say this becuase the plug itself is going to cause a slight delay in the system, not enough to be noticable by any human being... but enough to cause a Digital ECU system with discharge feedback to throw a **** fit.

That and I suspect the use of one of these may well fry your coils and then cause an ECU burnout...

It's an interesting principle to be fair though.

At 25/pop, no thanks ... I'd rather spend the 150 of my hard earned dollars on something else that the car can benefit from.

snake oil, expensive snake oil, i question how long they actually last and when the cap fails it probably just reverts back to a regular spark plug, the kv of the spark is dictated by the conditions in the cylinder, the coil may be capable of 40kv but the plug is usually only drawing like 8-12 at idle, i've not measured one at full load (sure it would go up as cylinder pressures rise) no load revving it goes down

I know its too damn expensive anyway. I wish there was someone that had alot of money to waste and actually try and buy all these gimmicks to see if they work or not.
