ok so reading my magazine i ran across this

Okada Plasma Direct

Its an ignition amplifying system that appears to actually do something instead of just creating an electrical fire..

they have the direct plug and play for the 3s-ge engine, would that plug into a 3sgte engine?

I don't think Crewchief was disputing the bhp effect of this product but rather commenting on the increased wear and tear on both the engine and the ignition components.

Spot on buddy, It will increase BHP and performance but will place a burden on the ignition system, there are also ramifications with having a spark that is far to hot for your engine.
I have been a spark plugs dealer for 6 years an engineer for 12 and a mechanic for 27.
I was a registered denso and Bosch dealer, and am still a NGK dealer and I am one of only 2 Halo distributors on earth.
I can say with complete confidence the Plug manufacturers go to very expensive lengths and liaise with the makers of cars to match heat ranges to engine needs and specs.
I have further refined that for the EU market due to our very high quality (but extortionately over priced fuel $8 per gallon at the pump) You want to match the final spark heat to the fuel, compression and engine performance figures.
A better spark but not necessarily hotter is what you want.
If you increase the amperage and voltage the heat will go up, and the higher performance the engine the cooler the spark you want.
If you use a plugs that is too hot or over heat a plug for a faster spark you can damage the piston or the valves as well as the spark plug.
