    spark ignition dwell time

    Well my original system was coil on plug with no ignitor (it is in the coils). The coils where failing because of age and new ones are $500+ shipping so I wanted to try something else. I guess it would be easier to just go back to a coil that just fires once with plenty of time for saturation. I...

    spark ignition dwell time

    Its odd because off boost I can rev clear to 7k with no problems on boost it breaks up at around 4800

    spark ignition dwell time

    here is the setup im using. http://forums.nicoclub.com/post3419200.html?hilit=coil#p3419200 I have a 10 gauge wire suppling the power directly from the battery via a relay. I'm not really sure about the dwell time because I dont really know how to test it. But as far as I know its working...

    spark ignition dwell time

    I already have a pretty small gap (.025) I really dont wanna back it down any further. I can't even get it up to 6k rpms under light boost. I might just ditch this setup and try ls2 coils or something. It seems waisted spark setups are just less powerful as far as I can tell.

    spark ignition dwell time

    It looks like that system is around $240 shipped. If I can find out which GN coils work the best I could get that set for $100 and probably be done with it. But I need the part number. I think the one I got is a maganvox but I'm not sure. I got a 10 gauge wire feeding it so I know its not a...

    spark ignition dwell time

    Yeah I'm not using the gm ignition module. It is the wasted spark setup like you mentioned. As far a I can tell the coil fires twice a cycle. once on compression and once on exhaust being the coils are linked to opposite cylinders. The spark just seems to be not that strong. I was thinking there...

    spark ignition dwell time

    I'm using a nissan J30 igniter. The ecu I'm using is a nistune daughterboard. The crank and cam sensor is all in one. I think its a optical sensor. I have full control of dwell time and duty though.

    spark ignition dwell time

    This is in a nissan that I put a 2001 skyline motor in. I changed the ignition setup because the stock coils were bad. I got this coil out of a park ave at the junk yard. Under boost (10lbs) the spark gets blown out at around 5K. I want to switch to a ACDelco or stock GN coil pack. Which ever...

    spark ignition dwell time

    Buick dwell time I'm having the same issue. I'm running a buick coil pack (the 6 in 1) and it seems to break up a 4800 to 5200 rpms under boost. The tuning program I'm using lets me adjust dwell time and says that at that point with the old coils its set at 4.94 ms. At this point i should take...
