Thumbs up Pivot Raizin Spark Type S




Anyone else have one of these installed???

Since I already have the pivot voltage stabilizer, I decide to go and try the ignition stabilizer they have. Cost about $100 shipped. Its made in Japan. Has 32 honeycomb type capacitors. I plugged into the ignition coil fuse! I hear some people put it in the accessory fused, but I have no idea why??? The yellow wire in the pix was not used. I used the always on option, the yellow is for the ignition on option. Not sure which way is best???
So far, my butt dyno is very pleased, I can really feel better acceleration.
I will keep on eye on the the fuel gauge and report back if theres any improvement in mpg.

Yeah, it's pretty much along the lines of the T1R Ignition Booster. From the looks of both, I sometimes wonder if they're made by the same manufacturer, but who knows? I've got the T1R and it works quite well. I don't think the acceleration's all that different, but the idle's smoother and the engine feels more responsive overall, especially in the mid-high rpms. I also noticed a consistent gain of about 3-4 mpg ever since I installed it.

Be prepared to get flamed and told it's all in your head, though. There's always a big debate brewing around these things -- and mostly coming from people who don't own one. Driving impressions/experiences for booster-type/stabilizer devices never seem to cut it with that group for whatever reason, though if it were a set of springs or coil-overs, or a muffler, then they'll usually jump right in if they read a good impression. Very odd.

I know what you mean. But we can easily just unplug it and
put the fuse back in and see the difference immediately. So
I know its not in my head . The T1R is actually made by another
company...

I just went through my first full tank of gas, I'm getting
an additional 2mpg with the ignition stabilizer.

Thanks for reporting back! Did you notice a gain in mpg with its voltage stabilizer too?

Also, do you have grounding wires installed?

I can't say if the raizin voltage stabilizer improved mpg because I installed it during the engine break in period.
