Default Integra's with MSD's, show me the light!!

If you have an Integra with an MSD ignition, can you post up a pic of where you put it? i'm trying to find a place in my crammed engine bay to put mine
Or a good easy spot to put it in the cabin somewhere near the firewall.

not a damn thing thats why I sold it and got some money back out of it. I was young and naive. if you are running boost then I would say go for it.. All motor, waste of money.

stronger multiple sparks, garuntee that everything in that cylinder is ignited. also depending on the box you can retard the timing, set rev limits amd dual stage rev limits for burnouts/staging/launching (at the track of course).

the stuff inside the MSD box is totally sealed, it's fine in the engine bay.

What did you guys do with the cables that were up against the firewall right there? Are they brake lines?

I had mine behind the center console it fitted fine.
cause there is a possibility of water getting thru the blower motor
so thats a bad Idea.
but there is no difference if you are not really revving hard over 6k
it works great with turbo.

As I said, the insides of the MSD box are sealed from moisture, so it doesn't really matter if it's in the engine bay or inside the car.
