theres no point to it, you dont stress the stock ignition enoyugh to justify the cost of the msd

i liked the whole multiple spark feature under 3000 rpm, its supposed to smooth out your idle like whoa.

I only went the MSD 6al for 2 reasons.............

Got a killer deal, $100 including B2 coil.......and to use it as a igntion cut instead of ECU fuel cut when spraying.

Stock ignition = 400 whp

Stock ignition + MSD blaster coil = 500 whp

MSD = frequent ignitor replacement, occaisional loss of power.

Blundy should set you up with window switches for nitrous de/activation, sir, and forget about fuel cut.

For that matter, window switch to interrupt coil signal = cheap + same thing.

Sell the MSD and pocket the $.

why would you spend hundred's of dollars for a more cleaner idle/rpm range, when the car is not even making a decent amount of power to begin with... i mean i could see if you have money to throw around or you want to build a serious motor. but other then that... makes no sense to me.

its like sayin "yeah i would rather spend hundreds of dollars on something thats gonna make a nice idol? or spend hundreds of dollars on say a bigger turbo or exhaust, somthing thats actualy gonna make a big improvement in power"

you decide...
