Here is a great spoof. Split-Fire Spark Plugs. They only show an improvement in performance because you are doing a tuneup. They have no advantage over any other spark plug on the market.

It does folllow the shortest path, but it does alternate back and forth. NGK V-Power'* have been proven to give a SLIGHT improvement in burn rate efficiency, but I'll give you that I don't know that information with regards to Splitfires. Both plugs operate in 'oppositely similar' fashion.

Regarding plugs, does anyone know if our ignition fires with opposite polarity from one side of the coil to the other? I suspect it does. I know my wifes Ranger with the same style ignition uses platinum on opposite electrodes on opposite sides of the engine. Strange but true.

For the non-technical, I am posting this as a myth and throwing the flag.
For the technical, let the cow pies fly.

The improvements their "independant" testing showed, tend to make me think the PCV system needed service in the first place.
If there is any doubt as to my opinion of this device, let me reiterate....

Life Expectance of the Disc is at least 3 years. However, the manufacturer says, "It could last indefinately as long as the hologram is not damaged".
