Pivot SPARKEARTH

[Spade]

Has anybody installed Pivot SPARKEarth? Is it of any use or any good? My question, why would pivot come up with all these good sounding products and Japan some more if it is simply snake oil?

R u refering to the red color Pivot Spark Volt Stabiliser?

It works well for me. I suppose you are saying the small (not transperant)with a blue LED box. My friend driving Nissan Sunny also give good command about this thing

I am driving Renault M2, btw.

The question is you need to know it works, apply some physics and car knowledge to validate it. Don't blindly buy because of testimonies.

 

There are parts that are proven to be effective, like light pulleys, but there are still risks involved.

no, check it out http://www.pivotjp.com/product/flame-sparkearth-e.html

I have install it together with the Pivot Spark(red box). I can feel the car more responsive and the accelerator is much lighter. I don't need to step a lot to move off.

 

Correct me if I am wrong, Pivot Spark purpose is having a capacitor to store current for your ignition coil. Pivot SparkEarth is just another voltage stabiliser specific for the spark plug to provide stable current.

 

One interesting finding, after installing the above, my ICE improve quite a lot. I am very happy. (wondering.....so no need Pivot Sound)

[Spade]

thanks for your feedback. I guess it is perhaps only a minimal improvement at best.

How much is it?

I have installed Pivot brand 5 grounding cables, another 4 for each of the high performance spark plugs and a voltage stabilizer in my Mitsubishi Lancer. I have also changed the original spark plug cables to Pivot high performance with 3 cores in each of the 4 cables. The car is now very light, quick response at pick-up with just a light throttle on the accelerator and more power. I spent about S$250.00+.

Pivot Spark+ SparkEarth cost me $230, include installation. I have try a few brand of vs, eventually, still Japan brand can feel the most improvement.

wwhere is a recommended place to install pivot spark (red box)??

[Funkyjazz]

I installed it at McWell, Paya Ubi Industrial park. Their price now are quite reasonable.

dunno whether my car is compatible with red box...... . i heard its compatible only with certain makes and engine..

[Kwongwing]

I believe that the red box (Raizin Type S) is compatible with most car models whilst the yellow box (Type V) is designed to suit only some cars eg WRX.

I drive an Estima and have myself been thinking of installing the red box version

Just added the SparkEarth and VS and it is definitely smoother and lighter on foot. At least for a short moment now. Not sure how it will fare 1 week later.....

 

FYI, I am driving a Renault GS2.
