I just wanted to see what other peoples views are on using a MSD box with our cars and if there is any gains from it or will it not do anything.

 

Unless you have some reason to believe you're not getting complete combustion with the stock ignition, there's nothing to be gained from any kind of multi-spark ignition box.

Now, if you're running at high engine speeds for extended periods of time, *and* have modifications that greatly increase your cylinder pressure (nitrous, insane amounts of boost, etcetera), then a multi-spark system might make a difference.

Remember - it only takes one spark to ignite the air/fuel mixture, and once it's ignited, additional sparks do *nothing* to improve combustion further. MS ignitions are really meant for engines where a single spark might not be enough to reliably ignite the mixture.

 

well said, ty

 

Not trying to start a debate but I found many flaws in your statement. having read up on how MS works I see that nothing in what you said is correct.

 

This has all been covered in other threads. This is old news and is dug up for no good reason. lets leave sleeping dogs lie please.

 

I think his post was curious ("not trying to start a debate", while at the same time claiming that I'm 100% wrong, without giving any specifics), but I don't think it's offensive or inflammatory, so I'd like to respond as long as you don't object and the conversation stays civil.

AFastMINI, perhaps you could reference some of the articles/papers that led your to your conclusion, or list specific claims from my post that you have a problem with (unless of course, you seriously believe that *nothing* I said was correct).

 

AFastMINI was someone that has been banned before under another name, you'll not be getting a reply and since this thread was obviously dug from the dead to possibly create more controversy its now closed.
