The MSD stuff is kind of spotty...unless you get the digital systems. I've gone through 2 6A boxes in as many years simply because the analog boxes can't handle heat very well. The best solution is to splice the wires longer and mount it in the cabin. MSD actually has a digital setup for imports/sport compacts...the Digital 6 SCI. You'll have to figure out which wire operates the tach (if you have one) since the tach should be hooked into your factory ICM and won't work if you don't cut the tach wire out of the harness and connect it to the MSD box's tach output. A pain in the ass...but it's worth it. I'm not sure how the digital stuff handles rev limiter, spark retard, etc., but MSD has always had an amazing online library of tech info.

Hmmm...so I caved into curiosity and checked the box out. Apparently it has a holeshot rev limiter built in and even a spark retard for nitrous use. So apparently it looks pretty sweet.
