I don't want to sound dumb... but I'm getting tire of searching just to get more confused, I'm 18 years old and new to messing with pistons since I been building rotaries with my dad since i was 13. lets go to the plot. I'm turbo charging my ka24de and need a way to fine tune my timing (not just retard with units like MSD BTM) I'm buying ultimate E-manage which i belive is able to do the job but there is a distributor on the way unlike a crank trigger on 13bs', my question is... Is there a way that i could bypass the distributor and fine tune my timing? i heard about that MSD flying magnet, can i combine that with an MSD 6 Box and Emanage??? really really confuse..

The emanage ultimate will let you do whatever timing you need.

The new emanage ultimate can even bypass your distributor and go direct ignition.

1/2 timing is the distributor. the other 1/2 is when you're computer tells it to spark. I have the Ultimate and it only retards timing currently. In one of the near future revisions you will be able to SET timing to what ever you like.

Made some picks.
