QUOTE(n8210 @ Dec 13 2011, 05:51 PM) So are we getting a glimpse of the used normal cheap spark plug that you have been using? Just want to see if everything is still normal after 1.5 years using it. Am I right on the time period? Eh? I didnt say I was using for 1.5 years, you must have misunderstood or assumed this!I said the FireStorm Booster was sold in the northern region for 1.5 years. And it was installed in my CR-V 2 months ago which I use for outstation runs only. I dont use the CR-V much in town as I have 5 vehicles and 2 bikes to use! |

QUOTE(n8210 @ Dec 13 2011, 09:29 PM) Hi, thanks for your reply. May I ask how do we address the issue whether there is any long term side effect, since you have also just tried it for 2 months? Appreciate your reply. Simple, since you have not purchased even 1 unit yet, so you wont know for yourself the pros and cons. Maybe if you keep checking on this thread in another 1 year and 4 months time, you can get an update here or you can PM me then?Otherwise, keep checking in on this thread from time to time to see if any of the users have any complaint about this product in the next few months. Sorry, there aren't any accelerated life test conducted on my spark plugs. Or the best would be to experience it yourself by putting a unit into your car. Cheers.

QUOTE(n8210 @ Dec 13 2011, 10:49 PM) I'm starting to feel that you don't like ppl asking too many questions when they have not given you any business. Ok, I get it. No, you are wrong! I am not hard up for business. This is not a business for me but a passion to share a device that can help those who want more out of their car and yet is affordable. I dont post ridiculous claims of power enhancement and fuel savings. Look at the reviews and feedbacks from the users. This is their experience after they have installed the FireStorm Booster. They are getting something for the money that they pay for the device. I dont sell pieces of fat cables or a box of capacitors and claim huge power increase and huge fuel savings. I dont mind people asking questions but your requests are impossible to fulfil and you assume much more than what I say. As I have said, it is good to ask questions and I know where you are going with your requests. I'm sure the other Forummers reading your posts would feel a little strange of the questions that you ask. My reply to you is simple and to the point. If I did not like people who didnt buy from me asking questions then I would not have replied to you, even up to this point and the threads would not have entered its 11th page. I am not angry at you in any way, please believe me. All I ask is that questions and posts should be constructive and useful so that other Forummers can understand and gain knowledge from. I am here to share my knowledge and also to learn from others. Remember that, he who shares, learns more. Cheers. This post has been edited by flashaholic: Dec 13 2011, 11:59 PM |

QUOTE(sctan1986 @ Dec 15 2011, 07:22 PM) Hi peter,i received the FireStorm Ignition Coil Booster today. Errr... back yard industry lah! Hahaha. If not how to sell so cheap? If it comes with nice packing and instruction booklet then can add another RM200-RM300 to the price lah. Hahaha. But more imnportant is that it works!Are this FireStorm Ignition Coil Booster is self made because its dun have proper packing and warranty card But never mind , lets go back to my feedback, i immediately feel the car becomes stable after i install it , before my idle rpm is on 1.5-2 now i adjust it to 1 and the car is still remain stable without any uncomfortable vibrate . The engine sound becomes more quiet and there is some improve on pick up. About FC , i will updated it later after i make a comparison. Cheers Good to hear that your engine is now idling the way it should. Before this your FC must be really horrible but now I believe there will be much improvement. Thanks for sharing your experience. Cheers. |

QUOTE(jerrygys @ Dec 16 2011, 07:55 PM) Peter! =) got my unit today! =) Hi Jerryimmediately installed in my myvi 1.5.... later will assist my friend's alza! Maybe my car too new.... Can't really feel anything yet. But will definitely update about the performance later!!! VROooom! =D Thanks for the feedback. Irregardless of new or old car, there is a difference after the installation. My advice is to use the FireStorm Booster for the whole of next week then after Christmas, remove it and drive for a few days. This is so that you would get used to the FireStorm Booster's difference and then back to your normal car performance. Give it a go and let me know at the end of this month. OK? Cheers. |

QUOTE(farakz @ Dec 17 2011, 12:31 AM) hi Peter, is there any way that the FireStorm is not working? how to check is it really workin or not? do u test it b4 u send? Cz u know i installed it on my spectra.. i drove it. i felt that it has results. but when i took it off..i felt the same with normal fuse.. im confused... how do i check myself the booster is working or not? cz i know there is the improvements, but i cant differentiate my feelings. just want to check the booster on some kind of devices like in your video..what i can use to check it? is there anyway thaht booster can be spoiled? Hi FarakzAs advised to jeryygys, use it for 1 week then remove it after Christmas and drive without it to compare. This "feeling" thingy or what we call "butt-dyno" is very subjective and differs from every individual. Some people are more sensitive towards their car performance while others are lesser. This is why some people argue that only a dyno run will prove if a device works. In a certain sense I agree to this argument, however, in light that the price of this device is so much lower compared to other similar performance devices costing more than RM1000 and is less affordable plus that it is not universally adaptable to all car engines, I would say that the expectation for this simple device would have to be lesser than those costing more than RM1000 and quoting xx% of gains and xx% of fuel savings. The FireStorm Booster is a good choice to upgrade the performance in terms of faster and smoother acceleration for the stock original car that has not gone through much or any modifications. This device will save the user's money where in comparison to installing other aftermarket devices that will either void the warranty of the car and engine or cost a lot of money eg. exhaust manifold/header swap, removal of the catalytic converter or rear muffler box, replacement of high lift cams, injectors, throttle bodies, stroker kits, piggyback ECUs, bolt-on turbos etc. It is undeniable that to get huge performance gains, the above modifications are the way to go but that costs a huge amount of money and also makes the engine a fuel guzzler. You can try to remove the fuse at the back of the FireStorm Booster and insert it again a few times to ensure that there is good contact between the fuse and its connector. Do this likewise for the Booster's wire connector to the fuse socket, then run this device for 1 week and after Christmas Sunday, remove it and drive another week and see if you feel any difference in the acceleration and gear changing during your normal driving style. Sometimes many people expect a huge surge of power from this device, but I am sorry to say that this is not what the FireStorm Booster is designed for. It is designed to give a smoother and slightly faster acceleration and because it gives a more complete combustion of the air-fuel mixture, there would be slightly more power squeezed out from the air-fuel combustion and this will help with the smoother acceleration as well that on automatic gearboxes, the gear changes are faster and less auto gear change or kick down when climbing up slopes or hilly terrain. Please let me know in 2 weeks time after you have driven 1 week with the Booster installed and 1 week without the Booster. Cheers. This post has been edited by flashaholic: Dec 17 2011, 05:31 PM |

QUOTE(ALeUNe @ Dec 17 2011, 02:43 AM) I have used this for many weeks now. Hi SimonI guess it's time for me to say something about this. This thing does indeed provide a smoother acceleration to my car. However, it doesn't save fuel in my car, not even 1% of fuel saving. i just came back to JB from KL. I had been cruising more than 700KM along the North-South highway. I tested it on both rural and urban driving in the past few weeks. I don't have heavy right foot. I used RON95 fuel from Caltex and Esso. Does it worth the money? For me, yes it's worth the money for that smoother acceleration. Thanks for providing your review. Yes, you received your FireStorm Booster probably on 18th of last month so that's a month of use on your ACR50. As with all power boosting devices, the gains will be the difference in acceleration and in which case should work out to more fuel savings since the smoother and faster acceleration would mean lesser foot work on the accelerator pedal hence the fuel savings bonus. However, in start-stop town and urban runs, there would be minimal to no mileage gains fromthe FireStorm Booster as the amount of petrol wasted in traffic congestion and crawling in town. Highway runs, especially on long stretches should see more savings, however, this again depends on the "right foot" factor. Hehe. I always tell my customers in person that after fitting any power boosting device, the urge to feel the thrill of a smoother and faster acceleration always gets us to jab the accelerator pedal a bit more than normal and in the first few weeks or even months for some, as they are happy with the acceleration factor and so the fuel saving factor is not seen. The final million dollar question for everyone who has purchased the FireStorm Booster and has had it installed in their car is: Is it worth the money for the smoother acceleration and fuel gains bonus OR I am happy with the slightly better performance even though without any fuel gains from this device as Simon has mentioned here. Then again, if you've never tried, you'll never know. Cheers. This post has been edited by flashaholic: Dec 17 2011, 10:36 PM |

QUOTE(trxx7989 @ Dec 17 2011, 11:34 PM) Hi Peter, Jimmy, Thank you so much for your review and comparison with the V-Manage.Here is my review. I'm comparing it with my existing V-Manage & FireStorm Booster. Faster Acceleration, gear change smoothness is the same as V-Manage. FireStorm Booster is running cooler compare to V-Manage. I can feel my engine running more smoother & silence also, as for torque 'FSB' perform slightly lower compare to v-manage because of the different voltage generated between both of them. (V-Manage 16.1vdc max, FSB 14.5vdc max) Voltage recorded for my car only. It's strongly recommended for stock to mildly modify car. You won't feel on heavily modifier as written by Peter. Surprisingly this gadget can squeeze out extra 20km even i had added 5kg into the car during testing period. In short: FireStorm more suitable for Stock to mildly modified car. (i.e. High flow Air Filter, Iridium plug, lighten pulley & etc) V-Manage is suitable for heavier modified car. Driving on non-stop or long range definitely will save more. Tested using BHP RON95 on 1ZZFE Added on December 18, 2011, 3:07 pm QUOTE(ezue75 @ Dec 18 2011, 01:10 AM) hi peter, remember me. just install on my car Hi EzueAre you using the FireStorm Booster in your Wira or was it Kancil that you were testing out earlier on? An easy way to find out is to remove the FireStorm Booster and drive your car for a few days without it, then install the Booster back in again and see if there is any difference. Please let me know after you have done this for 2-3 days. This post has been edited by flashaholic: Dec 18 2011, 03:07 PM |
