Nug Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 I am thinking of running a little nitrous oxide on the subaru bug, but I don't want the engine to blow chunks. I know MSD has ignition retard controllers for such activities, but does anyone know if any of their base ignition systems will support the ignitor/coilpack deal that's going on stock? You know, because of the way the coil is set up, 2 plugs firing at once? Or am I waaaaay off on that assumption? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intrigueing Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 Josh Legacy777 has a MSD, you can click to his webpage by clicking Legacy777 at the top of the new gen page under moderators. I'm sure he will also chime in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 yeah I got the dis2 unit. Good ignition, good options, and pretty easy to wire up. I've got some pics on my site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nug Posted January 23, 2004 Author Share Posted January 23, 2004 Yes, I looked on your site. Do you know if a MSD 6A would work? I have one on my Jaguar. I like it, but the three-inch sparks flying out of it when i pull a plug wire scare the s--- out of me. I'd be more comfortable paying $150 for a 6A than $300 for a DIS-2. But if that's what I need, then I'll get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nug Posted January 23, 2004 Author Share Posted January 23, 2004 For anyone who is interested, i actually called MSD and the guy on the tech line recommended the new DIS-2 digital ignition system p/n 62112, and the required tach/fuel injection adapter p/n 8912. Works on any car with DIS and two coils, has new-style potentiometers on the back to set the rev-control and timing retard (nitrous oxide, baby!). I'm getting that power-to weight ratio better all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 Yes you must use a DIS ignition one.... I think you meant to say the programable DIS ignition, pn. 6212 It's a nice unit, however it is more expensive then the normal DIS 2 which you can get around 300 bucks. But with the programable one you do get to set boost/timing curves and other goodies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nug Posted January 26, 2004 Author Share Posted January 26, 2004 Apparently the 62112 is new for 2004, or something. They stuck some more features on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 guess they haven't updated their website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
