MSD Ignition for DIS systems
Well, it's out there. I had been searching for ways to retard timing and I found an msd ignition for distributorless ignition systems. It lists at about 330 which isn't horribly bad. I plan to pick up one of these relatively soon. No more need for alcohol injection. You can find it at summit racing.

Rep Power: 306 I've been looking at that too, but jegs said they didnt think it would work on our 3 wire system. Each coil pack has a ground, 12v+, and trigger wire.

Rep Power: 302 All I need is a 2-stage rev limiter. I need something to pre-spool the turbo, without over revving.
If anyone knows what will work please enlighten me. My car is being setup for race use (full course throughout the year, with dragging for occasional tests).

Rep Power: 302 I apreciate that, however, the GSR ignition systems are COMPLETELY different than our cars so it would still be different from him.
I may just break down and call MSD sometime this week.

This DIS system is designed for cars such as the Mazda Miata and Protege that use a coil pack and camshaft positioning sensor instead of a distributor, and not coil on plug as we are. Coil on plug is a totally different system from DIS. DIS is where you have a coil pack with spark plug wires leading to each cylinder's spark plugs, instead of having the coil pack directly on top of the spark plug as we do.
MSD is reportedly in development of a coil on plug system much like the Ignition Solutions setup that I have, and should be released sometime around middle summer.

Rep Power: 306 I was looking in to buying one for my car. It interupts your ignition at a pre set RPM as long as you have the remote launch button held down. This also causes flame to shoot out of your exhaust b/c your not interupting the fuel pump like a stock revlimit so its actulay less harsh on your car and will keep the turbo spooled at launch. You cannot retard your timing w/ it, but you can set both your drag launch and soft touch main rev limmit w/ it.
I cant remeber the website though, just search for BEE Racing. Also there up on ebay from time to time.
