[MPNick]

Neat! MSD or AEM or ?

MPI system, new coil pack, new plugs, new wires, new ignition amp.

I already got hit by one car this week....lol

I'm afraid to say I would take him, bad. Maybe not on the street but I'm damn good on the tree. I won out of a field of 84cars, I was the only fwd. and 1 of 2 stick cars.

Plus I'm getting pretty good with the stock potenzas.. 13.8 @ 8psi at englishtown with the p5 motor.

Spark problems? It's not getting a powerful enough spark?

not at that high boost.

blah. I still put 10bux. on my car getting there first. Traction with 360+ whp on stock tires is gonna suck... He'll have to wait for 4th. before he can get on it. lol

Are you talking OEM Mazda Parts?

Ignition amp for the mpi tuner?

He's blowing out the spark? at those high boost levels?

All performance aftermarket parts.

25 psi and .035 gap.

I'm sure Nick will tune it for boost control...

Why such a big gap? I read that our plugs are supposed to be .028-.032
I'm by no means a great tuner, but I thought you were supposed to make the gap smaller to avoid blowing out the spark.

 

[LinuxRacr]

From the looks of what he said, the spark will probably be bigger with the new system.

I'm glad it's like a 200 dollar fix for me if I run into the issue... we'll see! Hoping to do my full bore dyno in early may.

It's a LOT harder for the ingnition system to ignite the mixture under high boost levels. You want the largest gap that you can keep the arc with to make sure that it's a hot spark. With the new ingition system, I'm sure it's powerful enough to get through 25 psi.

Nick, are you using coil-on-plug?

 

[igdrasil]

we here may be using Rx7 coil packs

Tight gaps to not idle as well and do cost you some power. The best of both worlds is to have a real strong spark that can jump across a wider gap. Yes we need to cut the gap down because are coils suck. Now with our new system you can keep the larger gaps and not blow the spark out at higher boost levels.
