What is the advantage of using individual Spark Controllers (lol) vs. a dizzy?

 

If each cylinder has its own coil, the coil has more time to recharge before firing again, vs one coil for all for cylinders. This makes a bit more top end power usually, and little bit better fuel economy down low.

 

and ignition system reliability increases a lot.

 

what is the easiest way to make an indiv. coil setup, and what kinda oem pieces could you source to make it?
are all motorcycle coils created equal?
also is there another options besides EMS to run it?
like cheaper....

im looking at this more for a fuel economy thing at this moment than a performance modification. not on my honda though.

BTW theres a good thread stickied in FI.

 

What do you need to run in order for this setup to work? What is the average cost and are ther companies making these setups for honda's?

 

the msd dist cap has a pin for one external coil. is there a way to make one with 4?

 

anyone?

 

the main advantage is that you can accurately control timing in each cylinder for fine tuning.

at higher rpm i heard that the stock distributor can "spark scatter" causing miss fires or inaccurate ignition timing to the cylinders.

you can get more voltage to each plug with individual coils.

those are the 3 things i can think of.......would you need something like that.........hell no.......the odd pro drag racer or someone who wants to make huge horsepower could probably utilize something like that.......for the average joe its a waste of money.

 

over at pgmfi.org were trying to use individual coils with the stock ecu by using the cam position sensor; but no luck yet.

 

what about my idea previously stated?

 

anyone?

that thread talks about aem ems....$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

and the comment in bold is about that thread.

 

?

 

power cost $$$$

 

this isnt for power.

 

any way to turn your stock distributor with a quasi msd-modded cap, but containing 4 coil outputs into a COP conversion?

 

not sure about your idea but when i used sds i used coil packs and all you ned to do for that setup is a tone ring on the crankshaft to have a general idea of where the piston is at and when to enduce spark.

 

sds?

tone ring?

care to explain what you did?

 

.........

 

can anyone answer?

 

im gonna keep bumping
