Posted August 23, 200420 yr comment_92358 from an 8mm wire? That's what this brand called "Nology" claims. They're called "Hotwires". Claim to add 2% to 5% more hp, increased torque, improved acceleration and high rpm limits. Here's their tag line..."The secret lies in the Hotwires built-in capacitor, which accumulates spark energy until voltage reaches an ionization point. The capacitor then discharges the stored spark energy all at once for a faster, more powerful spark and an added performance boost!" Just another line like the Split Fire plugs or a valid product. Oh yeah, the price is a mere $159.95 for a set 4!!! :tapemouth $160 bucks for 2 to 5 more hp seems kinda lame.Vicky Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12969-300-times-more-powerful-spark/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 23, 200420 yr comment_92360 Vicky, I'll guess you're being kind with taking their word at gaining 2-5 HP. I'm guessing closer to zero. Which means the $$/HP ratio is infinite. Such a deal!

August 23, 200420 yr comment_92361 Sounds like A "Ricer" gimmick, but what do I know? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12969-300-times-more-powerful-spark/#findComment-92361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 23, 200420 yr comment_92362 nology actually has some pretty good wires.... what they don't say is that you have to have a full ignition set-up to actually notice any power increases. spark plug wires alone will not add HP to an otherwise stock engine. unless of course they are yellow and come with stickers, then it's a completely different story!

August 23, 200420 yr Author comment_92364 Sounds like A "Ricer" gimmick, but what do I know? You know alot!! It was in the "ricer" section of a performance catalog I just can't imagine that people would fall for such a line. But I quess if you'll bolt a park bench on your rear hatch you'll pay $160 for 4 plug wires for that 2 hp gain.

That adds at least 10 hp!!! Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12969-300-times-more-powerful-spark/#findComment-92389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 24, 200420 yr comment_92394 Does anyone know if this will work with my flux capacitor? I'm currently running 1.21 gigawatts.I'd snap up this deal, but all my money is tied up in ginsu knives - the ones with the space age polymer handles.Jim Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12969-300-times-more-powerful-spark/#findComment-92394 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 24, 200420 yr comment_92397 ur not gonna feel 2-5 HP and is only noticable by a computer...now 10hp to 20 hp you can feel and is worth it... but.. ehh it's not worth it.

August 24, 200420 yr comment_92431 Is that 2-5HP BEFORE or AFTER my collection of manufacturer's stickers for parts and accessories that I don't have on my car in the first place??I like to make sure of these things, it may be exactly the added power I need to help improve my 60-foot times, being my excessively loud and heavy audio equipment is soaking up some of that precious sticker generated power. I might have to get the entire side of my car vinyled to compensate for the boot full of 12" subs.

August 24, 200420 yr comment_92433 Maybe the 2-5 hp would be enough to, at least, offset the weight of the stickers. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/12969-300-times-more-powerful-spark/#findComment-92433 Share on other sites More sharing options...
