Has Anyone Tried Plasma Spark Plugs On Their 996 Tt?
A friend was telling me about the plasma plugs. Has anyone tried this type of plug on their turbo? Curious as I want to try it on mine.

I purchased some but have not yet installed them. PulsePlug is the manufacturer.

for the record
Here's an interesting change to the engine rules for the 2006 F1(formula one) season:

"5.8.1 Ignition is only permitted by means of a single ignition
coil and single spark plug per cylinder. The use of
plasma, laser or other high frequency ignition
techniques is forbidden.
5.8.2 Only conventional spark plugs that function by high
tension electrical discharge across an exposed gap are
permitted.
Spark plugs are not subject to the materials restrictions
described in Articles 5.13 and 5.14."

I herd that F1 cars use a plug that weights 5 grams and cost $50 per plug.
