plasma booster

I have one of these sitting here staring at me. Wanted to know if anyone had any experience installing them. I don't like the fact that I have to attach a wire to each trigger wire on my coils,....is there a better way that is less of a mess?

Believe me you want to go zbornac's way

Other wise imagine this
First you must cut back the protecting cover around each and every coil wire connection.

Then you got to squeeze this connector in


Then you got to get in there with a plyers and close each connector (not always an easy task)


The you make the connection to each one via a female spade connector

You'd be better off if you threw that "booster" in the closest garbage can or spent the money on a hooker

Steele you are 100% right that this IS NOT a Big Performance Mod, although it was originally marketed as one ???

With that said, anyone that does this Mod, DOES NOT do it for HP or Performance gains, We do it to save our Motors

Multi Spark / aka Plasma Booster WILL AND DOES create a more efficient cylinder burn, It DOES dissipate more heat in the cylinders, and it will give you a MUCH MORE FORGIVEN tune. But the most important thing it does, -->IS PREVENTS DETONATION

I admitt I wouldn't personally recommend this Mod as a big Performance Improvement, but I would for people looking to build safety into their tunes, or guys like me running Nitrous, it's an excellent and almost needed component for my way of thinking

I knew it! Do they blink for each ignition or do they stay on all the time? If they blink that would almost sucker me in. I have a stack of cisco switches and routers all hooked up in my room cause I like the blinkies! And the white noise puts me to sleep.
