ive done a search...no info...people were just taking guesses.... i cant find a whole lot of people with msd ignitions and turbo...and the only person i saw inquiring about it was...umm, i forget his name..the 349 whp dude...he asked a question similar to this, but got no straight answer...and believe me...i love to search, i only post if its completely neccesary

Boy, if i could reach thru this computer... do i have to do everything for you??? :P

here Bish, this what happens when a REAL MAN knows how to search...

"and yes, ex at 0 and intake at +4 is a place to start"
"I did not notice a loss in bottom end power with the cam gears set to +4 intake/0 exhaust, and my 1/4 mile improved from about a 15.55 to a 15.41"
"4+ intake/0 exhaust is what VX100 runs."
"...it seems that the general "best" setting is +4intake, 0 exhaust...."


nuthin with regard to MSD though. good luck. lemme known how it turns out.

thanks bud...but i think those are settings for non-turbo....from what I researched, i heard retarding it was best...but i just wanted to see if anyone had them dynoed...whatever, i guess ill play around....as for the ignition? anyone? thanks

The best thing you could do with an MSD ignition is sell it before it stops working...
