Which plug are you referring to? The Firestorm?

I've duplicated and tested it, both with single earth strap and duel earth straps.

What can I say, it worked much better than a standard "J" gapped plug.

I have videos of the events posted on a site elsewhere, let me know if you wish to see them. It has to be remembered though, my tests were not conducted under pressure and the display isn't as graphic under those conditions.

I may attempt to remove the viewing window in the pressure cell and "build" the plug inside the chamber that way, then reseal the window, and pressurise it. I simply haven't bothered with it as I already know it works from the open air tests.

I've been tied up with testing the Brisk Premium LGS plug lately. The Brisk plug is the best alternative to the Firestorm at this time, at least until we finally see the Firestorms long awaited release.

The temperature variations Robert Krupa allude to with his Firestorm are a little higher than what I am seeing from the Brisk plug, but that's to be expected as they're simply not the same type of plug.

The combustion chamber temperature reductions are there, in the form of exhaust gas temps, cylinder head temps, and the spark plug shell temps. All the readings I've taken fully support the figures that are mentioned with Firestorm, yet are still behind them, as I expected them to be.

I've posted the test results elsewhere online too, again, just let me know if you wish to see them.
