Firestorm Spark Plugs

FireStorm's Capabilities:
First, let's look at what FireStorm spark plugs give an internal combustion engine:
• More horsepower;
• 44--50% increase in mpg;
• Dramatic decrease in emissions.
Second, let's see what FireStorm plugs eliminate:
• Smog pump;
• Catalytic converter;
• Radio frequency interference (RFI) and the use of resistors in the centre electrode;
• Gap growth;
• Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems;
• Misfire/hesitation/detonation/stutter and stumble.
How, you may ask, is all this achieved? In a word, plasma

1988 called. They want their 'info-mercial' back.

YOU FORGOT THE CRUDE OIL CRISIS

[men8ifr]

wow so many faults with this video:

1 - fire plug looks nicer in the video because it distributes the spark around, the regular plug fires at the same spot every time - both have merits only an engine dyno will reveal the truth not a pretty video.

2 - Emissions go down - are you kidding! ever heard of NOx?? NOx increases with higher AFR ratio's.

3 - His car car fuel economy went up because he leaned it out! (no manufacturers can do this due to emissions (NOx again)

these can be made home made.

@petergrote1911 I received a reply from Robert Krupa a couple of days ago. He said that they should be ready by the end of the year.

Just look at this :

It is now 2011 and where are this SparkPlugs ? Like to BUY ! ! !

Out of curiosity i wonder how he got such a lean burn and eliminated the amount of NOx that would build up. As anybody knows, the leaner you run an engine( more air than fuel) means that the Internal temperatures of the engine will skyrocket meaning the that the levels of Oxides Of Nitrogen will fail your car on its MOT due to emissions.

So fitting these plugs to your standard car is really a bad idea unless you have a very very good EGR system and cooling system not to mention an SCR system

4 years later & still nothing at this rate I'll be dead before they hit the market.

maybe Krappa Krupa should utilize all that hot air he's got for improved fuel efficiency.

The best spark plug is one that can ignite all of the combustion gases at once. Some design are better to make the reaction faster. High voltage is one of those solution. More intense spark also help. But in the end, a spark plug of the same diameter will net around the same result. 2-3-4... spark plugs could net better results, but it,s not economically viable for a marginal gain. In the end, just use long life spark plug. Done

@lynel1985 Indeed it's close to none, but as time goes on, the wear on the copper plug is much faster and the gap widen between the electrode and the cathode, thus creating an increasing load on the electrical system, load = losses so more fuel to burn to get the same power output. Copper is good and cheap, but require more maintenance and replacement. Also they don't handle well the newer high high voltage output of newer cars, one of the reason car maker use Iridium.

[lynel1985]

@FNK7NK copper is much more conductive then iridium, but the difference still isnt going ot have a measurable differnce on fuel economy
