I would like to thank John for coming by also. He is a great guy to have car problems with.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

maybe it's time i bite the bullet and ditch these 2.7l dodge intrepid coils and get that 300m buschnuts setup..arg.

How can a good ignition company such as MSD suck for dsm's? I don't get it.

Just mount the stock coilpack under the manifold where the AC compressor used to be and it will look just as clean. I don't understand the need for COP.

Congrats on making lots of power though.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

cop is way cleaner, and I know if it's set up right IS BETTER. And, I can't do that..alt is back there.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

Who cares, are you planning to win shows?? Might want to fix the paint issue on the outside first.. thats a bigger issue over a couple wires exposed.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

MSD is not a good ignition company. They are the WORST. The DIS boxes fail constantly on every kind of car. The circle track guys will wire in 2 6ALs in case one fails during a race.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

hmm...crap. What do you suggest shane, as I did try a STOCK setup last year. What is this other box you speak of?

What about the spark tech kit? I know that the evo's have alot more of a problem with spark issues with the stock ignition and aem. And I know that spark tech cdi kits are very expensive, but thats just part of making good power. Im about to test out the hks dli box cause I have pretty much the same problem on my evo right now but only at 451 on a mustang. Hopfully you can figure out your issue, Heres a link for the sparktech ignition.

Those Sparktech setups are nice on the Evos, they use an M&W box.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

craig had nothing but problems with is talon with the dis box and brand new cop coils he got from work. the box did not work right and just went out one day. so we put the stock coils back on and got a set of taylor 10.4 wires for it. That fixed his problem he was have it was the same thing that your car is doing.

I would ditch the msd,cop,aem. and go with wires and oem coil and dsmlink

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

I think you should ditch the COP setup swifty. You have like 8 votes to your 1 vote by yourself suggesting it. You never know, it could be the whole problem. And like Peter said, if your worried about looks you should be focusing on getting your body fixed before you worry about having 4 plug wires under your hood.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

That's not what I'm concerned about. I know they work. It's the fact that WE TESTED A STOCK IGNITION AND IT DIDN"T WORK!

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

just food for thought

anyone tried that ignition?

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

But I thought that's when you had grounding issues. As Josh said, you've checked those things off and not ever coming back to them. Maybe there were two issues, and you've fixed just one.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

Like without the MSD and all that? Fuggin weird..... Are you SURE you have all your grounds hooked up :P Maybe add like 15 more.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

shane, wanna revisit the dyno, and try out a stock ignition setup, if I can find one? I wanna put this fucking crap to rest.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

I have two separate sets of good wires you can use, Taylor (RED, they match!) and stock mitsu. I'll bring them to Minneapolis next weekend if you haven't tested anything by then. I don't have a spare coil pack anymore though, I'm sure someone does.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

People are having all kinds of failures and problems with the ARC-2 stuff.

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

..anyone also have that bypass plug for a dis-4?

Re: Will my fricken' luck ever change?
 

How do you know its better?
