Does anyone has this? How is it compared to MSD 6A?

Here's the product description btw.

Sure, but you're wasting your money.&nbsp The SCI is just a fancy 6A - the rev limiter function will not work on an FC without some really fancy wiring and another rev switch anyways.&nbsp Save the money and just get the plain vanilla 6A.

Yeah I agree with RETed,

I spoke with a shop about the sci and it's basically a 6al with a 4 wire hook up. I'd stick to a regular 6a or dual 6al (for the limiter to work) because there is more information on those.

MSD 6A is $139 from Summit Racing.&nbsp Your friend gonna give you a warranty in case it breaks?&nbsp It's a toss-up at this point...
