Ignition dilema. Help me choose the best ignition setup?

My car dynoed 417rwhp with single msd6a. I have a hks twin power and a msd dis-2 from my previous cars. Do you guys think I would benefit by putting either one of these boxes on the trailing coils. I would like to make around 500rwhp with the boost turned up to 22-25 psi.
Here are choices...
1) MSD6a for leading and dis-2 for trailing
2) MSD6a for leading and hks twin power for trailing
3) Stay with just the MSD6a and sell the other two units
4) Use the hks twin power for both leading and trailing
5) Go with 3 msd6a

What selection would you go with? If you have better ideas, feel free to let me know.

Sell the other two units buy anothe MSD6A, then scrap your factory leading coil. Buy two CDI version and run one MSD6A + CDI coil per leading plug. (Two set mirror set ups triggered of the one input).

This will fire anything

go the same on the trailing if you wish, some benifit from it but I realy believe giving all the power you can to one leading plug at a time and not dividing the output over two of them.

I run the exact same set up but with Crane Hi6 and LX 92 coils in a mirror set up, I love it

I am using TII ignitors and 3rd gen coils. Wiring everything up was a bitch. I have a miata with a 3rd gen single turbo engine, wold3d, 850 and 1680 injectors. I still looking for the easiest route. Nothing is plug for my car. Anyone want to chime in on the ignition.

That sounds like an absolutely insane setup you've got. 417 to the ground in a *Miata,* and you want more horsepower??

Where in NJ do you live? After I redeploy back to Fort Hood, Texas, I'm taking a one way flight to NJ to pick up my FD from my parent's house. I'd really like to check out your mx.

As far as this thread.....I can tell you that Ari Yallon's Rotary Performance 650 rwhp mid 9 second drag car uses 3 Jacobs rotary pro packs, one for each coil.

I think for ultimate power and reliablity the CDI is the way to go. Hmmm......

Sounds great. For some reason the board isn't allowing me to receive emails, so please shoot me one at viperkillerfd3s@yahoo.com

thanks
