I was reading some engineering magazine today saw an article about "Pulstar Spark Plug".
The car actually gained more HP (Dyno tested and showed graph result)
Anybody knows about it?
I am kinda interested?

I was curious about these plugs... A lot of people think that its snake oil. And they cost 100 per plug. The power gain/dollar ratio is not that great IMO. I would say go with the AFE intake, which is less cash than buying 6 or 8 of these plugs. Just my 2 cents...

Do you work for AFE or something b/c I thought it was common knowledge now that the AFE CAI does not add hp... it actually subtracts hp...
