Currently i have an accel coil/8mm/ngk/advanced+2. I have the mantis88lx patented intake.

I was thinking about switching to a msd 6al and a round muscle-car style breather (more warm air which i hear carbs like).

Thoughts?

Well if you really want a 6al get on of ebay cheep but if you don't plan on doing major moding than a 5 series or a blaster series is good get a blaster for about 80 I think from www.summitracing.com look under budget ignitions

the cheapest model I know of with a limiter is an 6al. 6a's don't have one

is it worth buying a msd control or should i just get the accel ultra stock coil ( you know the racing one )? How difficult is msd to hook up?

The msd is not diffucult to hook up once, just follow the directions that come in the box. You just have to find a place to mount it. Most people I have seen have put it on the firewall in the engine carpartment. I mounted in spot underneath the dash on the passenger side because I wanted to have easy reach of rev limiter modules.


Just post if you need any help once you get it.
