HKS twinpower is a good starting point-



The MSD setup will yield you more power-



You can find lots of good stuff for your 7, including ignition setups at dewittracing.com

There is a thread about ignition setups on the other forum.

As far as MSD is concerned they will personally recommend a system for you, then fax a wiring diagram to you for ease of installation. Go to their website to check it out.

Yeah yeah yeah yeah..... keep your ignition system......





Problem is: missing large parts of it. When I bought engine, the guy " forgot " to ship the ignition system. Everything else is there, on the engine, but the ignition system, so.... need everything from ... harness , ignigtors, etc etc, got factory coils , but, while I am at it,I can just as well change the coils to some aftermarket betterones. But, PRICE is an issue, so there should be some balance, price/ durabillity/ function,.. cheap and great are nice

I vote for the stock coils (new ones) and the twin power....



This is the before and after dynos...

First one on stock ignition and greddy race plugs in the leading. also with new leading coil.



The second dyno is just adding the Twinpower...You do the math on how much I gained.
