whats the ignition contoller acheive?

gives the plugs maximum spark all of the time,where as running just from a coil its only sparking some of the time. Ill type in the stuff they say bout it later for ya. More spark means more power,more boost etc etc Yes i know its a complete copy of the MSD ones,just label different.but at quater of the price for something that does the same job and gets hidden away. ---------- Post added 26-08-10 at 15:50 ---------- Theory of 6 series Ignition. 6 series ignitions feature a captive discharge ignition design.The majority of stock ignition systems are inductive ignitions.In an in ductive ignition,the coil must store and step up the voltage to maximum strength in between each firing.At higher RPM,since there is less time to charge the coil to full capicity,the voltage falls short of reaching maximum energy which results in a loss of power or top end miss. The BKC ignition features a capacitor which is quickly charged(within one millisecond) with 460-480 volts and stores it until the ignition is triggered.

where'd ya get that from Kelvin? I was looking into doing the same, but after seeing the prices of MSD stuff I wasn't that keen anymore haha. So does it get wired to the ecu instead of using the factory coil?

So does it get wired to the ecu instead of using the factory coil? yea i always thought the same bout MSD,way out of my price range. Got it from STA parts.really was cheap,well worth it mate.i see in lastest petrol head Performance parts in takanini are doing MSD ones for twice what i payed for this. try to get hold of the 6BTM one though cause its made for Turbos and supercharged,be taking this one back and swapping it,although it will do the job fine. It wires up to your factory coil no worries,ill be running that to start with. and it has its own wiring loom,battery,coil,ignition,and old coil wires.simple as to do by the looks

oh yea sweet as sounds good, let us know how it goes

ha yea im the same,everything should be ok except my gearbox will spit the dummy real quick if i lean on it too much,which i will be! We should organise a flat deck and tandeem trailer for own girls to get down there???

well my head is at the shop getting done and block will be there next week and PC will be tight for a few of us but anyway got to get that entry in this week, good luck! ---------- Post added 28-09-10 at 22:24 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by PSIWPN NZ [View Post] sounds like its getting there keep up the good work as for powercruise yeah same here im not to sure if ill make it as id have to tow it there on a trailer incase of any breakages and as i havent sorted out a new transmission for it yet id just have to chuck a new clutch in it and hope it holds together what clutch you putting in? ever thought about putting a weak(std) clutch in so as not to smash you box? ok it might smoke a bit but you shouldnt damage anything major

why would you do that? itl slip with the slightest of acceleration!

why smash a good box then? then have to trailer it home? just my cents worth

just get a beefed up auto......problem solved all together :P Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

if your going to put a week clutch in it so it slips,you may as well not take it imo

^^ They can still take off heck of a beating !! A heavy pressure plate on your standard clutch will prob fix the slipping, But honestly for power cruise I would go with hd clutch and pressure plate.

been busy in man cave tonight. got few bits back from Al's Mufflers. car will be getting trailered to Muff man during week for full 3" exhaust etc. getting closer,just wiring holding me up frig it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

looking good man its comeing together nicely cant wait to see it again

cheers man,yea getting there,still hoping to make it to power cruise,so fingers crossed i dont run into to many probs. yea i cant wait to be driving it every day again!miss my girl.

Looks very nice man I hope that screamer pipe is breathing free Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Good work man keep it up! quick q about the heat wrap - in one pic its on the manifold but the next pic its off again, whys that? And did you end up getting the turbo version of that ignition module?
