They even have them listed as plugs, I guess they almost plug up a hole where they fit in but they surely are coils

The word is Plasma coils can really eat your sparkplugs fast, but I would like to hear otherwise about them as advances in spark ign power is always good

Of course if your OE coils are stuffed and you motor is running on 5 cylinders and you need new coils - then why not get em hey.

US parts are much cheaper and the exact same.. plasma spark and plasma direct are there for ez30.. get them and let's know the results

The coils turn your battery voltage into high voltage electricity and the spark plug makes a park from that high voltage.

As for the plasma ones I can think of many more things I'd rather spend 700 on.

The usual magic tech snake oil... Do some research, all actual tests have come up with sfa improvements that could simply be attested to new plugs, or air temp, or anything else for that matter.

"Oh wow, these plugs improved my economy by 2mpg when I changed out my 80thou old plugs etc" .... *sighs*

[alexeiwoody]

Exactly what I thought haha who in the world changes plugs after 80k miles and then writes a review avout how great the new plugs are....

However. Do a bit of research on the plugs, the technology inside them is actually quite interesting, based on plasmas
