Re: IVAC amplifier

yes you may Possible to use spark plugs with larger gaps. larger gaps will give more high spark voltage. but there become eazy miss fire. but when made high voltage and amp Supply will made less miss fire. you can try it use lager gaps . but you have to seek good gaps for your engine.

Re: IVAC amplifier

I have installed a trottle booster, coil booster and recently added on IVAC. All i can say is that these are the best mod for valvetronic owners (till the time we can install supercharger). The effect can be felt almost immeadiately. Shoik!

Re: IVAC amplifier

I installed both the stablizer and amplifier..... Noticed that the fuel consumption goes up a little.... thought it shouldn't but its what I've noticed.

Have any of you guys noticed this?

Re: IVAC amplifier

yes the fuel consumption Possible to become up a little. 90 Percent of I-VAC and coil booster user say Better consumption and 10 percent of user said the fuel consumption up a little.
case of the fuel consumption up is by habit of play with Accelerator. after use i-VAC or coil booster. engine speed is rise early than before. if you keep same habit as before. the fuel consumption will be up a bit. please Monitor your speed Meter. is eazy over speeding than before?? that will make the fuel consumption will be up a bit.
why 90 percent of user said better consumption. they said chenged habit to control the speed as before when just nomal drive.

Yah, same "problem" like the sprint booster. Your car is more responsive, time to adjust your habit. But when you want the "STEAM" and the "WOO"....it's there.

what i know is they cut wire from inside the Black Box, which is Located of ECU.

they will cut 2 way. one is just cut 12V power Supply of Ignition coil, but cut nicely as Manufacturing origin. other way is do not cut Original wire. they will instal new wire to extend original wire for cut wire to conect with coil booster or I-Vac. this proc for under warantee car.


anyway BVO'S workmanship is great than any other work shop.
