Well I am a performance freak...i added magnet to fuel line and now i can taruh my waja 1.6A up to 230kmph....hahahaha....just joking.

Any info on like performance data and pricing? I am just looking for something that would be nice to my baby and help fuel burn properly. What about the Bosh super 4?

as always, getting a spark plug is all about getting one with:

- the correct heat range
- the one that fit your budget
- the one that suits your ignition system (no point getting high end plugs if you have crappy cables)

no idea about you, and i have no knowledge of 4g18 engine. Personal preference i would go with Denso IK series iridium plugs. Then it is just a matter of heat range.

hmm.. where did you heard of this? To my knowledge when you turn off the ignition, there will be no more power source to the igniter, and fuel pump. so without fuel and spark it is imposible to have the engine running...

that's interesting, worth checking out, but theoretically impossible, unless someone can explain it.

truly agree with bridgestoneRE711.... the purpose of the magnet is to stabilise the neutron charge of fuel so that the combustion will be more effective. the target is to increase the efficiency closer to 100% rather than exceeding the standard performance.

i agree with jinkl too... standard spark plugs are sufficient enough to do the job. to increase maintenance period, try platinum type..

IMHO spark plugs can't increase a car's engine power more than 5%..

p/s my waja 1.6A can go only 190kph and i am very happy with that...:regular_smile:

performance = Iridium plug
Last longer = Platinium plug
Normal drive = Standard plug

Owes drive in city n hardly revv, use hotter plug.

if owes high revving, use colder plug...

this to ensure there is properly burn n the leftover carbon can be minimized...

thats becoz of probably wrong plug heat rating.
the plug become to hot n "glowing" and still igniting fuel even key switch off. usually on carb engine.

as for efi, very seldom occurs as fuel supply is totally cut off.
