  • ignition system for nitrous use

    when i was racing last night (and picking timeslips up off the ground! lol...riiiight) ...i got a misfire...luckily it was RIGHT at the finish so it didnt effect me at all...now that i have the fuel pump i've got that part of the battle done with i think... i just need to retard the ignition timing a bit..i only need this during nitrous injection...what do you guys suggest?...a DIS-4?..i appreciate any advice...thanks!

    maft+ is cheaper and can also tune air/fuel

    although you need a way to monitor it!

        maft+ and then find an old laptop to run Autotap on your car to monitor everything.

        Or get your PCM tuned by TSP and maybe can fix some of your other problems with a good tune.

          Or you could just get the HP Tuners tuner yourself and tune/retune as much as you want, it's got a steep learning curve but once you get over that the software is priceless!

            I think with the blower and nitrous, it's not that you simply need to retard your timing. I would bet you are blowing out the spark on the big end. MSD's pieces will do the trick to give the spark more power, as well as retard the timing a couple degrees if you so desire.

              ^^^ what he said

              only the DIS only has a top end retard your goign to need the the DIS-4 and the MSD Multi channle boost timmming master.... wicht reads boost and retard for that and will do antother retard curve for NO2 when you shot it

                  Um, yes it did affect you, I was watching.

                  Personally, I think you should not focus on any power adders right now, you have other concerns to address, like quality of the engine and N/A performance.

                  I run stock timing, stock timing tuning, i recently upgraded to MSD coil packs but my 14.0 N/A and 12.1 spraying was on stock coil packs.

                  I tried the MSD DIS 4 system along with CIU's and the bird would not run, some people swear by it, I do not.

                  MAFT plus would be a good way to adjust timing once you are ready for power adders

                        His engine internally is stock its from a junk yard, and a 100 wet shot isn't out of the question for a completely stock engine as long as precautions are taken.

                        When you start getting above 100 shot you have to start thinking about retardign the timing, but not really before then, unless you have another power adder.
