How to warm up your car in the morning less than 30 Seconds!
My car is a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS. Lately I've notices that in the morning I would always have to wait at least 3-5 minutes before my car would warm up. But I bought NGK Iridium IX along with Magnecor KV 85 Ignition Wires and the results were amazing.
When I put the key in the ignition and start up the car the RPM meter would read 1,500 RPM and it would stay there for about the first 30 seconds. So to more easily display it for you I will provide everything below with time. COLD START (Stock Ignition Wires and Regular OE NGK Sparplugs) SECONDS___RPM 0 - 1,500 RPM 30 -1,400 RPM 1:00 - 1,200 RPM 1:30 - 1,000 RPM 2:00 - 800 RPM 2:30 - 700 RPM 3:00 - 650 RPM COLD START (Magnecor KV 85 Competition Wires + NGK Iridium IX Qty. 4) 0 - 1,500 RPM 5 - 1,200 RPM 10 - 1,100 RPM 15 - 1,000 RPM 20 - 900 RPM 25 - 700 RPM 30 - 650 RPM The RPM needle just falls! Impressive results! Also acceleration is much much smoother and a little faster. I've noticed a 4 MPG increase in gas mileage also since the stock plugs were burnt out and the wires were like 4 years old. I would definately recommend these Sparkplugs and Ignition Wires to anyone. Especially if you want to get better gas mileage. |

Re: How to warm up your car in the morning less than 30 Seconds!
I'm curious, did the 4MPG increase just come between a comparision between the new wires/plugs and the ones that you Just took out or are you comparing it to when the previous set of wires/plugs were new?
If you are comparing to what you got with the previous ones when they were 4 years old, you may only be recouping the losses due to age and wear, not a performance increase over stock.
