At what levels of power/psi did you have to upgrade your spark system? Currently having a bit of trouble taking off time to time, and going wot. Once I'm moving it's fine.*Could be timing*From what I've read we are good up to around 350hp 15ish psi. Varies with your setup, like the fuel you are using and turbo size. Is this correct?

i figure if your taking the time and money to turbocharge your car, you might as well upgrade the ignition. after all it only costs a few hundred for a MSD 6AL and coil and some wires.

thats the system im using.

I have no problem with my system at 16.5 psi out of a GT32...all that's upgraded is aurora 8 mm plug wires, iridium ix plugs gapped to .028, JWT ecu controlling timing. I'm probably at the limit though.
