Performance & Emissions
Nology Engineering developed HotWires for
performance or emissions-oriented applications. A high
energy ignition system is absolutely essential when
attempting to reduce emissions or when building a high
performance engine.
Television news and headline stores are filled with reports on global warming, ozone depletion and the need
for more fuel-efficient, less polluting automobiles. Lawmakers and environmental groups try to force car
manufacturers to build ultra low emission vehicles known as ULEVs in order to eliminate poor fuel efficiency
and air pollution. ULEVs could come with gasoline-powered engines equipped with new fuel-saving and
pollution-reducing technology, or with engines able to operate on alternative fuels. Some scientists and engineers
assert that alternative fuels are not the solution of choice for many reasons. A big issue is the need for a fuel
distribution network. Using alternative fuels increases fuel consumption, greatly reducing the driving range
between fill-ups and emissions from such an engine can be just as harmful as those of gasoline engines. There
are also fundamental safety concerns carrying some alternative fuels on passenger cars. That leaves us with
gasoline powered ULEVs. Here we are confronted with a different problem. Car manufacturers claim that they
are having a tough time working to meet future emission standards for gasoline-powered engines using existing
technology. The engines in ULEVs have to operate ultra lean to be less polluting and more fuel-efficient.
Such a lean fuel mixture is difficult to ignite using conventional ignition systems.
HotWires surpass conventional ignition systems by a wide margin. They generate a high power, ultra short
spark that can ignite even lean fuel mixtures. Using HotWires results in an easier starting, smoother running
and less polluting engine. Life expectancy of the engine is increased. A substantial increase in power is possible.
A reduction in fuel consumption and exhaust emissions is always observed. HotWires can be installed in cars,
trucks, motorcycles or boats of any year as a retrofit device or as original equipment.
With a spark duration that short, the ignition timing is much more precise and spark power is increased substantially.
Flame front growth is much quicker and combustion more complete resulting in increased horsepower and a
cleaner burn. And because an ultra powerful spark can
ignite more fuel, you can raise fuel flow, increasing
horsepower even more.
To summarize, Nologys ideology on ignition systems is
easy...get the job done quickly and with a big bang. It
seems to work.
