  • Better Ignition System?

    http://www.directhits.com/index.html

    I never heard about them is it something serious or its like electric supercharger?

    $255 + shipping, [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] umm,, i think not! no its not a supercharger, its like a spark plug. Says gives you more power.. yeah right, for most engines a spark plug is a spark plug. To get more power you have to increase fuel and air.

      Re: Better Ignition System?

      It supposedly gives you more power per spark, meaning it ignites the air/fuel mixture better. it doesn't do much for our cars. our coil packs already outperform most ignition systems. for upgrades, get performance wires from MSD or taylor, coil packs from accel or msd, and if you really need a lot of power, get a MSD-DIS-4 ignition box. each mod gets more power to the spark plug. They're nice to have, but not needed unless you get into serious mods. wires for basic, coil packs, for moderate, and ignition box for heavily modified cars.

          I wonder if you will see a difference with your car if you did those mods.
