I was wondering has anyone put an msd 6a on their car and if they did what type of gains did they experience. I have one on my car but I am curious to know how others are doing.

um ... i didnt really notice anything, i think the throttle was a bit more responsive, but ive had it on for over 2 years so its hard to tell at this point

i heard this mod only give good gians when you have massive power. its not worth it if your not FI. just trying to get some truth out that.

i had that on the accord. the trottle response was way better than the original ignition, the power band was a lot smoother, and it went from gas yaradage to gas mileage. with the proper tuneup the accord wopuld get a combined gasmileage of 29mpg

I'm not a big fan of MSD. I had a few friends who had their shit go bad.
Look into a dual capacitor- discharge type like AEM C2Di. That is what I have, although I havent installed it.

i've been running my MSD digital 6 for at least 6-8 months now, it works great. better response and when reving the engine it feels smoother than it used to.

Get the 6a if you are going to be racing A LOT... the only difference between the 6 and 6a is a rev limiter and $50. 6 is $150 and the 6a is $200. Notice better throttle response and overall efficiency. No power gains... you don't upgrade your ignition for horsepower.
