I am here just to correct you and to crush the "what I heard" rumors. haha i am not an anti salesman either...but below are one of the statement of the user...Campro IAFM normal copper plug after 20,000km (Recommended plug change interval for IAFM by Proton Edar) usage: ![]() vr2turbo: You ask me ah? I am not an expert leh, so many other sifus around..... blush.gif As far as I know you may feel smoother acceleration but whether harmful or not you have to find out, but I can contribute the following story. My mechanic's brother is a technical guy, so following the same theory, he modified and made a module sort of like the one shown to increase the spark. Yes, according to him smoother acceleration, but he melted his spark plugs after running a few km only.....Maybe he over did it, I am not sure, but he took it out and replace the spark plugs..... biggrin.gif Anyway, there are also theory that mention bigger spark not necessary will complete the burning of the air fuel ratio in the combustion chamber.... sad.gif original source same as posted on the above...just dunno what his brother modded~~ SOURCE CLICK HERE Anyway im no expert or engineer~~ what i "heard" is mostly based on what i "read" in this forum (or zerotohundred)~~i think the user who complain (not the above) the product ultimately change his plugs and moved on~~dunno if there are further feedback from him... as far as i know...car manufacturers take power boosting technology and fuel consumption saving technology very seriously... if his product is great~~it could be included in our cars of the future This post has been edited by terryble: Apr 1 2014, 10:51 PM |

Just because his own module failed, that doesn't mean Firestorm will do the same. If that is the case, then by now, i will have 252 cases of melted spark plugs, excluding my car and I won't have the shiny spark plugs to be shown to you at the post above. 2) yes, that theory is correct. In a normal car, which is tuned to burn rich, it will burn off lets say, 90% of the fuel injected into the combustion chamber. Adding in Firestorm will enable the burning of fuel to be a bit more efficient, around 92-94%. It will not burn off the mixture 100%. |

tested the normal Firestorm for like around 20,000km. plugs no problem. everything else still fine.
then get the Super Firestorm. still using now. another 20,000km and counting. plugs no problem but seems cleaner than V12Kompressor shown. performance wise is good. i never expect it to be super great. |

From what little I understand, the user was not using Firestorm but rather a device of his own design that also creates a larger spark, which I suspect works like those aftermarket performance spark plug cables, which DOES generate extra heat. In the same thread the seller claims that FS produces lower voltage and lower ampere, that's why there is no excessive heat as byproduct. vr2turbo: You ask me ah?

Would rather you go and change to other brand such as Pioneer/Kenwood..any way i can change the HU to suprima s HU? Accessories shop should be able to tell u if they can integrate with it or not |

Both can....kenwood can wiring direct..pioneer must add some device to make steeing control function....but ask shop that they must use connector..so no cable cut....Accessories shop should be able to tell u if they can integrate with it or not |

Hi all Preve owners,
Anyone tried Racechip or other ECU tuning on the market? How's it so far? Can the CVT gearbox take it in the long term? |

QUOTE(Seng_Kiat @ Apr 2 2014, 07:46 PM) Submitted a few loans but only Hong Leong called me so far. Perhaps tomorrow. Hopefully, can get better deal from other banks. Try Bank Mualamat.Really one of the lowest in the market. It also depends on your credit score though. If your credit cards all pecah then sorry la. |
