NOPE never heard or seen of them... really if they were really good like alot of good aftermarket parts I think people would get the word out. IS this used for N/A set-ups or Forced induction cause if it's for F/I you might want to ask them. I was running just MSD 8mm wires and MSD blaster coil on my Turbo ZC and it worked fine.

they dynoed a 540ci big block chevy and only got 10 peak hp. considering that our motors are about 1/5th the size, we should get about 1/5 the hp gain - 2hp. you can easilly pick that up by replacing your worn out, tired plugs with brand new ones, for a lot less.

I looked into those one time. The idea makes sense, that little round tube thing is realy just a capacitor that screws onto the top of the plug. I dont see why you would need that entire kit. It seems that you should just be able to buy those capacitor things and use them with whatever current pug and wire combo you already have. As far as feedback is concerned, I have heard they work well on motorcycles, and of course this info is second hand.

the factory honda ignition system is as good as you need. There are only a handful of street cars that NEED anything bigger. Most drag cars still run factory plug wires and ingnition.

STAY STOCK
