I have seen gay-tec cars with "homo-tec" controlers that basicly allow it to kick in sooner.. I would imagine we could gain some healthy low end power by getting the waste spark stuff running sooner..

A spark during the exhaust stroke to burn any un-burnt fuel.
I believe the MSD DIS-4 enables the waste spark all the time.

Maybe it's a damn jumper wire somewhere? [img]smile.gif[/img] Find out if the ICM controls the waste spark, or if it's the PCM triggering the ICM after a certain RPM. Perhaps one of the many ICM Pins is a trigger wire.

You're welcome to come try it on my car, and you missed your chance to see it saturday. [img]smile.gif[/img]
This winter is definitely project time.

how does the waste spark 'turn on' at 3000 rpm? both sides of the coilpack fire when its triggered. by design the one side of the coilpack is at its compression stroke and the other is on the exhaust stroke.

I dont exactly know, Thats the issue..
From what I recall on the dyno I started seeing multiple sparks at somewhere around 2.5-3k rpm.
This is clear becuase all of a sudden my rpm's that the dyno registered exactly doubled what auto tap registerd.
So, The way i see it something triggers it to start that type of cycle..
Haven’t done anything on the Camaro, but put LEDs on my truck headlights . And my oil pressure sensor went out on the truck so going to fix that this...
