Plasma Boosting Your Ignition

Okada Projects of Japan recently introduced an innovative, highly effective and easy-to-install ignition Plasma Direct system, replacing the factory coils while promising to increase both horsepower and torque in less time than it takes to change out your spark plugs. What is the Plasma Direct ignition system you ask? Simply stated, the Plasma Direct is an ignition coil system that uses a high-power amplifier built into the unit. It produces 4 times more spark energy and a 100 percent improvement in secondary current (Spark Amperage) increase than the average stock coils without generating any additional heat inside the ignition coil. Extensive testings show that Plasma Direct also generates a highly effective multi-spark discharge of 10 sparks throughout the powerband. In comparison to the factory coil, which delivers a single spark discharge. The Plasma Directs multiple spark discharge and improved spark energy yields improved ignition and greater combustion efficiency, all of which is beneficial for those driving high-horsepower machines-but is a limiting factor often overlooked when building your street machine.

Tsukuba Circuit Japan Evo vs Impreza - Import Tuner Magazine
Tsukuba Circuit, Japan. April 1, 2007

Time attack race events did not begin in Japan, to the best of my knowledge, but their current popularity started there. It's become legendary, tuner-fueled battles with the hottest domestic (to Japan) metal strained to the limits of man and machine. Not only do the top tuning houses compete, but the top drivers in Japan are the ones driving those built machines as well. And the biggest crowd-pleaser of the entire year is also the first event, held in early spring at Tsukuba Circuit near Tokyo. This is one of the oldest and most popular circuits in Japan, a favorite of the drivers as nearly all have competed on it at one time or another.
