Interesting there are no dyno charts for forced induction engines there.

Yeah I noticed that, although they have plugs on their site for the legacy sports sedan.

They do say that if you have modifications, you may want a colder range plug.

A lot of people feel that this thing is just bogus from doing quick google searches on the plugs, but it was found in a popular science magazine. On top of that a few posts I found supported their products. The plugs are pricey, though. They were like 20 bucks a plug.

It almost seems that they are carrying out the same effect that the MSD ignition gives you with it's multi spark effect.

I'm tempted to try it out in my 4runner and see how much of an effect it has.

Never seems to amaze me how they keep trying to "improve" spark plugs. $80 on plugs? No thanks. Unless your running 18 psi or something. Sounds like too much electronics inside the spark plug to me.
