Has it been well proven on Toyota 4GR-FSE direct injection engine? (Used in Toyota Mark X 250G and Lexus IS250).
We have installed in both the Mark X and ES350 and the owners are happy with the new found power.

Advancing ignition timing doesn't enhance the spark quality la. But you have a point on the coil. That was one of the things I was hoping to try as well. I'm ok sacrificing my coil for the sake of a test.
Wira mah. Cheap parts.
I personally sold this FireStorm for almost 2 years while it had been sold to some local users for 1.5 years before that while test bed users had tested another 2.5 years during the R&D period. No one had complained of burned out ignition coils until now.
If the effects of the FireStorm is so great then it might have burned out the coil even within a few months!

i can spare u a few coil if u need any bro
seriously something touching the fuse box i don't dare to try, saw alot car burned nowadays
The FireStorm wire is thin and is installed in the fuse supplying power to the ignition coil. This fuse will get power only if the ignition key is turned on or when the engine is running. If there is a short circuit then the fuse on the FireStorm unit will blow.
Do any of you guys install Voltage Stabilizers in your car? Did you notice how fat is the cable from the Voltage Stabilizer that connects to your car battery? Now, if this fat cable were to be shorted then you would indeed kiss your car goodbye. Furthermore the VS is always connected directly to the car battery. What if a rat crawls in and bites the VS positive cable which then arcs onto the chassis of the car?
There are many possibilities for a fire in the engine bay but that the FireStorm to cause a fire would be very remote.
Do you guys install Voltage Stabilizers in your car? Be more careful as the possibility of your car burning down is so much higher.

Just read thru the last 5 pages and it seems to me that peterlm likes using words such as wager, bet, smart but not totally, talking down other dealers whatnot.
Let's just put an end to all speculation. I'll donate my Inspira with stock ECU for the dyno testing. Izso, don't need to go dyno on days with similar atmospheric content. Just dyno my car before and after plugging in the FS. My ECU doesn't need time to adapt to new stuff, just reset the battery connection will do. Simple, effective and easy.
That was what I said. Dyno will give immediate results. Fuel saving tests are subjective and dependent on the driver and roads tested. Unless of course if you have a test track at your disposal.
I dont usually do as what you say I do because in Lowyat those guys are open to prove the effectiveness of products by themselves whilst in ZTH the forumners here are more "learned" hence my different approach.
I learn about new things without condemning nor put my biased opinion if I do not know how the product functions. I do not talk about nor advocate dissecting a device to see what is inside but I use my knowledge and experience and research to find out the theory of how the device works.
To me it does not matter how the device is constructed because the end result is what I am after. I can create another circuit to get the same end result which is what matters. Reverse engineering someone's product is merely copying the design which may get us into legal issues if the product is patented.
I do agree that Izso's methodology of testing is very good but is rather lengthy and if its just improvement figires then a dyro run will prove it.
