Ignition upgrade

Anyone using the HKS twin power Ign amp have any feed back they would care to give, My friend just put an MSD on his '83 and it was like the difference between night and day. And I assume the Twin Power is about 100 times better than the MSD... Just looking for some feedback...
Thanks

Ignition Upgrade

I can't comment on the MSD, but I put an HKS in my car and I love it. Before, with the stock ignition, the engine wasn't bad above 6000 rpm, but it wasn't great either. It didn't miss, but it just wasn't silky smooth.

Now with the HKS it feels like I can rev right through the red line and keep on going.

Installation was a snap because I bought the wiring harness too.

If your engine isn't smooth at high rpms, an ignition upgrade might be just the thing.

Don't forget that handy search function which still works:

Very pleased with the HKS. Dyno tests showed no break up high end (in fairness I never dyno'ed the car before having an HKS). It definitley measured on the *** dyno.
