FireStorm's Capabilities: First, let's look at what FireStorm spark plugs give an internal combustion engine: • More horsepower; • 44--50% increase in mpg; • Dramatic decrease in emissions. Second, let's see what FireStorm plugs eliminate: • Smog pump; • Catalytic converter; • Radio frequency interference (RFI) and the use of resistors in the centre electrode; • Gap growth; • Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems; • Misfire/hesitation/detonation/stutter and stumble. How, you may ask, is all this achieved? In a word, plasma
Increasing timing advance because of it takes some time for pre chamber to active after the spark, then when the flame is going out of the pre chamber, combustion process happens more quickly.

Isn’t speeding up the combustion process suppose to decrease timing advance instead of increasing it as mentioned in the video ?
No,must be more advanced to let the fire from spark to escape nozzle,this tech will lead to higher compression with leaner fuel mix

Ignition delay increased, but mass fraction burned @ a given crank angle increased as well
Why can't these be utilized in a modern day or older HEI or performance multiple spark dishcharge spark box ignition????
This isn't a good video, because it doesn't show how the spark ignites the fuel mixture.
