Hks Twin Power Ignition

HKS Twin Power Ignition Amplifier

The Twin Power Ignition Amplifier is engineered to produce

a hotter and more efficient spark needed for high performance applications. The Twin Power continuously monitors the coil to allow the ignition system to reach maximum capacity without overcharging. The Twin Power also provides optimum spark duration and voltage output. The Twin Power combines a Capacitor Discharge Ignition (CDI) and a Transistor Ignition into one package. While the CDI is effective at producing high voltage, it can only do so for a short period of time. The Transistor Ignition controls current to the coil via an impedance matching circuit, to produce a longer spark duration. This powerful combination creates greater horsepower at higher RPM levels and increased throttle response at lower RPM levels.

the purpose is 'has anyone come across these' ... I want opinions I came across it when browsing and have never heard them mentioned before on any MR2 forum, so anyone ?

At JAe this year I spoke to a TOC member HKS_TC_Corolla_GTi (Nad) who has a twin charged (supercharged and turbocharged) 4a-gze engine in an AE92 Corolla. He said that it works well and he hasn't had any problems with it. But it will not cure a bad/faulty ignition system - it mearly amplifies what is already there. If it's bad it will make it worse.

Hope this helps.

interesting, i was thinking of it as a 'safety' mod, reduce any chance of det even more. I want my engine to last a long time :)
