has anyone used and have good or bad things to say about the PULSTAR PLUGS

there $25 a piece so im just making sure its worth it or if theres even better ones
even if they cost more its koo

i would like some feed back

thanks

 

I have them installed in my car. I cant tell much of a difference because of my other mods. Thye are only spark plugs so Im not too sure how much yo are going to see from them. I have read a bunch on the plugs and they seem to be good. Lots of testing done on them.

 

sounds good to me so far thanks

 

eh.. a plug is just to fire a spark, simple. Lots of marketing and hype surround spark plugs. Only problem plugs really face is getting a clear, strong spark. This will happen as long as the electrodes are not worn. Worn electrodes on plugs (spark comes from the electrodes) are a result of wear due to usage over time

Don't fall for the hype. We have NGK in our cars from the factory. Also some have denso, but the cars I've seen were NGK brand.

I wouldn't trust pulstar. I would chuckle and then buy NGK

 

I have never seen any of these "novelty" plugs do anything in reality. Stick with the Denso/NGK Iridiums your car came with. They are good for 80,000 - 100,000 miles.

 

The tC plugs that are stock are about the best your gonna get.

 

NGK and Denso Iridiums FTW

 

I have NGK 1 step colder Iridiums.. they're great. Gapped at .035"

 

for all of those who don't understand... One step colder plugs are used for turbo'd cars. Not the regular tC engine which isn't a turbo. Just helping the newbies.. Don't try that on a normal tC engine.

but i do agree NGK Iridiums are the best out there!

 

anyone know somewhere else to get NGK iridiums? i just broke one of mine while regapping.. so guys be very careful when you have to change the gaps.. i was being careful but i guess not careful enough

 

ace83, you can find the NGK Iridium plugs that's in our engines from Advance Auto Parts. Looks like they're in texas (looked at your location under your name). Part number is 4589 or IFR6T11. They're called "NGK OE Laser Iridium". Hope that helps.

They're pretty fragile if you try and gap them. Best way before buying is to look at them. take a ruler (in mm) and put it up to the center and side electrode to measure, then you won't have to gap as long as it was done correctly from the factory.

 

He's turbo'd too - so he needs atleast 7 heat range or higher.

People gap Iridiums all the time. You just need to do it properly. Mine came at .044" and I regapped them to .035".

 

.99c spark plug gap tool........makes life easier.......if gap is too big lightly tap on inner fender or other flat surface.......I know that is not the prefered method of shrinking the gap but have doen it so for 20+ years like that.....then adlust gap to proper settign withthe gap sizer........

 

I thanks for the link Im gonna look into that.. next time im regapping im gonna prolly use a pliers, i used the regapping tool and its risky as you try to wiggle it.. i received mine gapped at .029 and now i have them at 0.034

 

is step 2 too cold for 7-10 psi? i know i should be good with step one colder but it wouldnt hurt to get step two right?

 

It won't hurt - it'll just keep your combustion temps a little lower.. which means a little less power, but I doubt it will be noticeable.

 

I have never tapped on a plug to gap it. I lay the plug gap tool, or something else hard and flat, on the electrode and push with my finger. You can close the gap that way just fine without beating on them

 

whats a good amount to have the stock plugs gaped at? or should ya just leave it alone?

 

if you're just stock, no turbo.. then it's 1.0 - 1.1mm for the gap. (0.039 - 0.043 inches)
