Before you invest in cold air
intakes, exhaust headers, nitrous
or cat-back exhaust, plug in some
REAL POWER WITH DIRECTHITS

lol ahh i knew i shouldnt have bought that catback exhaust :( now i will have no power at all!

They got a 30 day money back guarantee... we should start a fund... i guess we would need dyno time too though..

what a joke... yeah if you ran all that crap doward listed your gas tank would FILL UP as you drive...

Yup, same goes for just driving better on the second run. :biglaugh:

Yup, everytime I try it I keep running out of power cord... do you have any idea how expensive 1/4 or a mile of extension cords costs? :nono:

There is, in fact, a sucker born EVERY minute...

Read about spark plugs and what they do.

Now tell me, what can your "magic" sparkplug do to increase power?

Guys, please use just a little sense when looking at this stuff.

If it weren't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable...

Looking at a few of the dyno sheets posted, the dates are from 2003? I guess this is not a new item. I think I am happy with what I have. I went through the price list and 255.00? and i do not understand if that is 255.00 for every plug or 255.00 each??? Plus it says they will last the life of the car. Its just a little weird to me.

well, there is a spark plug design that would increase power output, it used an electical wind to force the flame front in the direction wanted (generally straight down)

these? well... I could see how it could work in that you want the largest gap you can run, but once you have seriously high compression (usually through forced induction) you get spark blowout...

I can see it working, but that much money... hey, it's not THAT bad comapred to some of the super special iridium plugs out there thse days...

EDIT: AHAHAHAHAHHAHAA oh this one is GOOD, you gotta hear this...

"DirectHits does a great job at igniting hydrocarbons at lean air:fuel ratios conventional spark plugs could not begin to ignite."

YAY, so I can melt my pistons FASTER!!!

They do seem to have quite a few good reviews and even some proof from major magazines...

Take:

  1. An outrageously overpriced product
  2. A customer who is likely not that bright
  3. A customer who is probably too lazy to go to UPS to send it back

And you're going to turn a profit. Some of your customers will "believe" it's better, because all in all, people are fucking idiots. Some just won't return the product because they will never get around to it. Some will forget, some won't care. That's probably 75% of what you shipped out.

The margins on this are likely so high that they only need about 1/2 of the product to stay sold in order to turn a huge profit.

Stop falling for these schemes people. You own a Supra, you should be smarter than this...

Hrm. I didn't notice that the 1st time because I wouldn't even consider buying this junk. But you are right, they say that returns must be in "new" condition.

So, when the spark plug start to wear down, Can I just unscrew the top, take out the AA battery and replace it with another and I'll be good to go? That's what's inside this right? Hell, I'll even pony up and put lithium batteries in it!!!!

hah, what a bunch of shit. this is almost worse the the "horsepower in a can" shit at autozone, its like a big fucking glob of goo (never used it). and then there is this engine flush that you can buy to "condition" you motor for synthetic oil and it gets the sludge out. its basically soap and water is what it looks like, ide never use it but my buddy bought some and i was like,, hell no lol.

well, they do show some dyno results supposedly from SCC, but who knows...

I'd try em on a dyno and return em, if they didn't refund I'd file suit and shut em down...

Not gonna fall for it personally, but I'd be interested as spark plugs are as old as the internal combustion engine itself, and haven't been advanced much at all...

Agh...

You could stuff a freakin' arc welder down in your cylinders for spark plugs and you still can't get more than a 100% complete burn.

And you'll never see a complete burn due to valve overlap and other engine deisign compromises that had to be made. Fluid dynamics has a lot to do with it.

With crushing EPA regulations, CAFE standards, environmentalism and all the other politically driven bullshit that goes on around cars, this wouldn't be a well kept performance secret. Getting more power out of the same thing is efficiency. Efficiency helps meet CAFE standards and emissions. Efficiency can be marketed as "green" making all the political whiners wet themselves.

But keep playing lip service to the snake oil scam artist. He loves people who tell others "it might be true" and "who knows".

It's bullshit.
