Hey all I have a 1995 EF XR8, I am wondering what the best option is for the ignition; can I do away with the dizzy and convert it to a coil-pack system.....well like EF 6 cyl's are?... but maybe a high performance MSD system or some thing like that, what would be the best options for it and where to go??
thanks all Aaron. |

Go aussie with an ICE 6000E module:http://www.iceignition.com/
You could convert to AU EECV to run Direct ignition but it simply isn't worth the trouble. |

I gotta say though that the bang for buck factor of an aftermarket ignition system is not great. It's possible to spend money elsewhere on a stock motor to get more performance for less money outlay.
Having said that, I run ICE leads on my car and they are very good quality and do an excellent job.

I personally have IC & E leads on my Eb Ghia I6, and i had the guys there build up a Bosch Electronic dizzy to suit my Lh Torry's turbo 173, they also supplied a coil & leads too. It wasn't cheap, i remember spending about $550 on that setup, and handing over a working dizzy for the rebuild & recurve. I haven't got that engine running yet, but the feedback from mates with IC & E gear in their car is that it is worth it, but they usually do other mods first, then get the ignition system to suit those mods.
The leads made a big improvement on my Eb Ghia I6. Cheers ToranaGuy
