Jacobs vs MSD
Hey guys... After all that discussion about MSD... I have been looking at a Jacobs Ignition setup... Is anyone using it on their 12A? Can you give some feedback? It supposed to be the setup for Rotary engines... Yes/No Maybe so?
Thoughts?
Thoughts?

From the looks of it, it's not worth it. A lot suggest going to the 2nd Gen setup.

Is jacobs similar to the dlidfi system featured at http://www.geocities.com/cd23c/dlidfis.html ??
The dlidfi system seems to be the best way to go for a rotary but read the article and judge for yourself.
I have a j-port 12a wich is running the dlidfi system and i couldnt fault it in any way. Its not really a jump in power but it simply starts and runs much better/smoother especially at high revs. You will also notice a slight change in tone which sounds pretty cool but the only down side (if you can call it a downside) is that i dont blow hardly as much flames as i used to simply because its combusting much better in the motor.
I guess it really comes to how you drive your rx-7 and what you want out of it.
