I was thinking i need more spark for my car , Is anybody running a msd

 

last i heard their normal ignition box was buring up our coils...

 

Same here. Avoid it.

PS - our car is DIS. So if you do get an MSD box, MAKE SURE you get the DIS kit. But you might still blow the coils......

 

And why were you thinking that?

 

I'm going to say that you probably don't. I honestly can't think of a reason any Lancer that I'm aware of would need it. That includes Omar's and my own.

 

What about the HKS Ignition?????? People use them alot on our style ignitions and there is a kit for the EVO!

 

I just don't see why anyone thinks they need this. Theoretically you can probably use any wasted spark system or completely redo the entire system. Ideally 4 coil packs would be the best solution, but hey...it would require fabrication and either something like E-manage with the ignition harness or standalone engine management. Again though, I don't know of any Lancer who needs any ignition upgrade beyond maybe spark plugs. Even plug wires really aren't necessary.

 

They're shooting for 500whp^

 

ok thanks

 

Then an MSD ignition would not be the way to go. Individual coil packs would be ideal. Regardess, in that case you probably would want a standalone, and separate ignition would be superfluous.

 

so could anyone sum it up for me cuz im guessing i shouldnt think about it cuz thats wat i wanted to do well what can i do to upgrade my system and were can i get this product

 

What's to sum up? Your car is only a couple years old. I don't know your mods, but I haven't seen a single Lancer modded enough to NEED a new ignition system.

Save your money, get something you really need.

 

some1 please, for me, define the difference between stand alone vs. say, rrm piggy back. pros cons? and, if I take my car to a dynometer, with an rrm piggy back, will they make me a map?

 

Standalone replaces your ECU's functions. Piggy back still uses the stock ecu but modifies certain signals to change how it functions

 

I don't see why you would want to downgrade to an MSD box anyways. The ignition that our cars has is actually the second best design, only being beat by coil on spark systems like Corvettes have. Changing to an MSD or even MSD-style would mean that you are going to have long wires for the spark to lose power in, and alot of extra crap junking up your engine bay and adding weight. And let's not forget the amount of setup that you would have to go through. If anything, just find a way to upgrade the factory stuff.
