Pulstar Iridium Pulse Plugs are the first real breakthrough in spark plug technology in over 120 years. They look and fit like spark plugs, but contain an integrated electrical capacitor, which focuses the energy of the plug in much the same way that a camera flash intensifies light. The result is peak electrical energy delivered to the fuel mixture that is far beyond that typical of conventional spark plugs, allowing for more complete combustion that in turn produces not only better fuel efficiency, but also increased torque and horsepower.
All gasoline engines require ignition of the fuel mixture compressed within them to generate the energy needed to power a vehicle. Historically, conventional spark plugs have provided this, but with both the needs of performance minded drivers and fuel prices on the rise, there must be an alternative. Today drivers can dispense with outdated spark plug technology and step into the modern era with Pulstar Pulse Plugs. Pulstar Pulse Plugs may look similar to spark plugs on the outside, but inside the technological advances of Pulstar are evident. Pulstar pulse plugs feature a unique built-in capacitor-based circuit that captures energy normally wasted by spark plugs. This energy is released in an amazingly powerful and quick (two nanosecond) high-energy pulse, which generates a spark with 20,000 times greater energy than any spark plug. Because this energy is stored in the built-in capacitor of the pulse plug, rather than routed through the plug as with spark plugs, ignition is available at the exact moment needed, resulting in more efficient and cleaner combustion of the fuel mixture, as much as a 10% increase in cylinder pressure, improved fuel efficiency and a guaranteed increase in horsepower and torque. Pulsed Power Technology Pulsed power technology is the science of storing power for a relatively long period of time and then discharging the stored power in an instantaneous pulse of energy. Installing pulsed power technology in a performance auto part helps to increase horsepower (while being driven aggressively) and also helps to improve gas mileage during normal driving. A simple way to think about pulsed power technology is to think of Pulstar's Pulse Plugs being the flash on a camera, whereas spark plugs are more like a flashlight. A camera flash is exponentially brighter than a flashlight even though they both may use the same battery. The spark comparison image to the right demonstrates the size brightness of a spark plug vs. a pulse plug. Here it is easy to see how much more energy is accumulated and dispersed to be used by your engine, which results in improved ignition velocity. Ignition velocity refers to the growth of the combustion flame front, the speed of which determines the amount of energy released from the fuel. The greater the amount of ignition energy, the larger the spark. The larger the spark, the more efficiently your engine can operate to produce horsepower or, inversely, better fuel economy.
