  • Problems with DIS-4 & juice?

    Has anyone had any specific problems with a DIS-4 system and running juice? ..James i know you said they suck..did it just not do anything or did it actually create problems?...i ask because i've got one in my room ready to go..but i'd like to get some feedback on the cons of this system...i dont plan on using any of the features except the timing retard...i plan on running a 75 - 100 wet shot...maybe a 125 once to see if that will give me 12s...and i'll only be runnimg juice at the track...i probably go about twice a month..thanks!

    I run 75 no problem without the DIS-4, and there are others that run 100 without it. I would think anything 100 and up though you should use it.

    James will know more

        My bird did not like the MSD DIS4 unit.

        It would not even run.

        Some people, a very small amount, have it and it works.

        I run a 125 shot and stock (well, msd coil packs upgraded) igntiion system

        If you already have it.... try it.

        If you havenm';t bought one, don't bother.

        It DEFINATELY has many nice features..... I was not able to get them to work.

        I will be exploring other idea's when I'm at a level where I feel I need to reduce timing.

              yup...they're on summit racing...OEM replacements...

              http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...05187&view=257

              Bolt on a better coil.

              When it comes to late model performance parts, nothing beats bolt-on and direct connection components. Especially when they improve performance like these new replacement MSD Blaster coils. They are designed with improved materials and windings to produce a stronger spark. This improved spark helps burn the fuel mixture more efficiently, resulting in a smooth idle and improved mid-range rpm power.

              what do you think? [img]smile.gif[/img]

                    did you put the buypass on try to start the car???
                    did you check for 12 volt and wire it the correct way?
                    did you have the DIS-4 swtich set for our cars?
