Installed the Crane Cams HI-6 “fireball” today (pics)
It feels great! I have not got any MPG’s ratings yet of coarse, but it feels more responsive and starts up a lot easier when the car is warm. (It always starts perfect cold) I will keep you all posted on the rest of the results and the long-term gains .. but I must say it is a cake walk to install! It took no more than 1 Hr, and the rev limiter does work …. That could come in handy on a bad miss-shift. I wish I had some Pre dyno numbers .. but I am having the whole car Dynoed for the first time this Monday at 11am I can’t wait!

Scathcart, I assume my trailing plugs are still firing .. but I don't think they alone can handle the sick amount of fuel I am dumping in the motor at that RPM ... I turned the rev limiter down to about 6k to test it ... and it felt like a BAD 3800 RPm stuble, kinda like hitting a fuel wall where the secondaries were not kicking in ... thats good enough for me. It could help in a bad miss-shift, thats the only reason I even have it hooked up.

I am afraid of not passing smog if I put one in..

So wait.. I was thinking.. if this only works for the leading what if I got a second box for the trailing?
I take it the rev limiter would work and would you get even more performance?
Would this be worth it to run two of these dogs? Has anyone done it?

Hey, what's the difference between the Hi-6 and Hi-6s?
Besides $65.00?
RpecK.. where did you get yours at? I see Summit has it for $200.00 is that the best price?
THANKS!

let me change that statement, I'm sure the unit will work right .. but I doubt the connectors will work.

MSD makes a 4 channel ignition box.
Channel 1 goes to the leading coil and channel 2 and 3 go to the trailing coils.
The cost is around $250.

The box you speak of, the DIS-6, will only run the rear channels.
Unless, of course, you don't want split timing and run either a constant 15 degree retard or fire wastespark on the trailings (bye bye motor).
The minimum possible to run on a 2 rotor is two boxes, a DIS box on the trailings and a Regular CDI box on the leading.
You wont feel the dfifference with the extra box on the trailing, either; It'd be huge overkill.

Ya, I got mine from summit for $200. I this the 'S' model just is like a plaug and play setup .. with direct connector hookup for distributor-less cars .. I doubt it will work right on a 7 ....

But you want the HI-6, not the HI-6S.
