Pulse plugs = 5.2 whp !?
here is the truth guys...
No spark plug is going to "make" any significant power that is repeatable. Where do such gains stem from? Simply replacing a set of plugs that perhaps are a bit tired, or improperly gapped, for a fresh set that are properly gapped.
Just as jeffiez stated above
use whatever plug suits your performance needs and budget best

I dont think so, but thats my opinion----I tend to shy away from them in a FI situation, but thats my opinion also.
Sometimes Less is more, or at least, the same.
I really like a copper plug, but some rant on them. They give me a more honest plug reading.

Foe those of you lazy people that don't want to search, this is the other thread that has a lot of good info on the plugs:
https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/288837-pulstar-plugs.html
I raised some questions on these plugs and how much truth there is to all these gains. BTW, 5whp is usually within any dyno's margin of error. Proving gains that small is pretty hard.

ok - for ***** and giggles I am going to buy a set of these for my car, and next time we dyno I will swap plugs at the shop and see how we do.
My test will be simple - existing plugs (NGK Iridium), new NGK Iridiums (same heat range), and then the Pulstar plugs. I don't expect to be able to get this done before spring time due to lack of time, but I'm interested in enough to give it a shot.
I already have the DLI installed on my car, so that won't affect the test at all. All runs will be done with the DLI plugged in

Ran into the dealer here in Albuquerque, this is where they are manufactured & he is going to comp me a set in the next week or so. I will post up some numbers in the future as I am again ready to hit the dyno in the end of March. Everybody I talk to raves about these plugs....so far.

HDPD350Z...I feel I must warn you, the Turbonator is still in the testing stages

Does any VQ35DE motor done that? any Dyno result? compatible?

no, you want 1 step colder plugs. Rumour is these plugs run hotter than normal.
