factory pro ignition advance

[jmyg79]

Hey guys
What do you guys think about this factory pro ignition advance kit. Im going to be putting on a TBR full exhaust with a stage one kit and K&N. Is this a good combination or does anyone have any other suggestions. Check out the link http://www.factorypro.com/Prod_Pages/prodh77.html
any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Jeremy

I'd like to hear of the results of the TBR system when you've got it fitted

I know it dosent answer the question but I've got a superchips ignition unit and it definetly smooths out the power delivery through most of the rev range ( Leaves a fairly big dip at 4000rpm which can be tuned out but only at the expense of power at the top end)

Hi Jer.
Ive got the ignition advancer in mine. Not a huge difference fitted on its own.(personally I don't think the gains are worth the hassle of fitting on it's own) But with pipes and a dyno set up it all adds to the power curve
Go for it and let us know how it works out.

thanx guys
Im gonna do the exhaust, jet kit and filter first. Then in a month or so when I have to change the oil Im gonna go with the ignition timing. I will let you know how it goes.

don't forget the coolant has to be dropped too.

Erm....Coolant?
First I,ve heard of this. I take it you don't mean splashed on the floor for good luck.
Tell me more please Del.

The advancer replaces the standard stator (or whatever it's called) on the crank shaft which is accessible only by removing the righthand engine case. The right hand engine case has the water pump built into it. When the case is removed then it exposes the return (I think it's the return - yeah it is, i think) side of the cooling system from the bores. If you don't drain it down first then just as you crack it off you'll have an engine/gearbox that's water cooled, good idea but not nice.

Hopefully you would realize this as the case would not come off before you disconnected the right radiator.

Sorry Del
I was being thick(Wife say, I,m good at it)
I thought you ment the level of coolant in the radiator needed to be reduced after fitting the advancer and I didn't understand why.
Guess it doesn't pay to think too hard sometimes.
I was trying to workout if changing the timing by a few degrees would make much difference to the heat dissapated into the rest of the engine.Doh
Don't worry I take a pill and go back to sleep.
