I'm pretty interested in these because its not like your basic ignition that involves cutting in the wiring harness.....I like the fact that I can take them out in 5 min if I have to go to back to the dealership.....The only thing holding me back is the price tag $500 ......Maybe we should start up a group buy to get it down to $400,, thats a little more acceptable......[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

$400 US is still pretty expensive, works out to be around $620 CDN, plus you still need to do other upgrades before it's even worth getting this.

I know there are at least 2 people on this site that have them....FamilyMAn and IDQCIVICCheck out the LINKY.........When changing your spark plugs you have to pull these out anyways......No cutting wires.......takes about 5 minutes to install or uninstall......DAMN $500 price tag.....[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]

It really is useless unless you have a lot of mods. Even with basic bolt-ons you will not feel much difference, and it is definitely not worth the price considering the "gains". It's probably a better idea to keep your car in tune than to buy that thing. You'll probably notice more difference by changing your spark plugs, oil, clean your filter, throttle body, and fuel injectors when it's needed than with this plasma booster. I wouldn't run it unless I had major head work or was running boost.

I'll probably end up getting these. Just wish the price wasn't so High!
Wish MSD would get on the ball and make something for us. They are
a name that I am familiar with and know that they work.

I am skeptical that these plasma coils are nothing but an LED light
show for under our hoods.

A Dyno would be nice to see on our car!
