Pulstar(TM) - something he really needs

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., June 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Don't know what to get him this Father's day? Instead of cologne, neckties or golf balls, Enerpulse, Inc. is betting on fuel economy gifts. When you consider that Pulstar(TM) pulse plugs can improve Dad's gas mileage by an average of 6% or 2-4 mpg and make his car a lot more fun to drive, it's a no-brainer. Plus, he'll be doing the environment a favor by reducing carbon greenhouse gas by nearly 1,000 pounds per year. See http://www.pulstarplug.com/fueleconomy.html to utilize our fuel economy calculator.

PULSE PLUGS VS. SPARK PLUGS

Pulstar(TM) is a unique type of spark plug called a pulse plug. Unlike spark plugs, pulse plugs have an integrated electrical circuit called a capacitor. The capacitor increases energy to the spark just like a camera flash boosts light. Now you have a fully robust spark that significantly improves engine combustion, thus yielding better fuel economy and engine performance. See http://www.pulstarplug.com/howtheywork.html.

Dynamometer tests utilizing the Environmental Protection Agency fuel economy protocol (EPA US06) demonstrate significant gains in fuel economy, horsepower and acceleration. As compared to factory installed spark plugs in a 2004 Volkswagen Jetta GLI, Pulstar(TM) generated 13% improvement in fuel economy, 4% more horsepower and 11% faster acceleration. Even a 2007 Toyota Prius delivered 6% fuel economy, 3% more horsepower and 5% faster acceleration. At an additional 3 mpg, the potential savings at the pump could be as high as $7.00 for a 15-gallon tank.

"That's what makes Pulstar(TM) such a great gift," says Daniel Parker, CEO of Enerpulse, Inc. "Dad saves money on fuel while getting a boost in performance. Not bad for a $150."

Enerpulse, Inc., a privately held company headquartered in Albuquerque, N.M., was founded in 1996. The company develops environmentally friendly ignition products through the application of pulsed power technology. For more information, visit http://www.pulstar.com/.
