I bought the msd 6520 (digital 6 plus) and the tach adapter 8910 eis. I installed my Msd and it ran like crap. i dynoed it and lost 30 horsepower to the wheels. i replaced my rotor, wires, and plugs and i gain a whopping 3 horsepower.

wait....you gained 3 after losing 3? or gained 3 after getting your 30 back

yeah, this isn't making any sense. Did you dyno it before you "lost" 30 hp? or are you saying you're losing 30 hp from the crank to the wheels?
btw, ignition doesn't really have THAT much inpact on hp

It seems as though he dyno'd it after installation and saw that he lost 30 hp..
YoungSurvival.Org-Celica traded for.. 350z.. traded for Mazda5.. soccer mom!
dude its easy he had what ever HP....then installed the ignition system and LOST 30hp (stock hp-30) then he changed the cap, rotor and plugs and got +3 hp....so do an equation.....stock - 30 + 3=X.....so basically with an upgraded ignition he LOST 27 horsepower

Usually people run a baseline to see what they're car has stock and then dyno it again after adding parts or changing ne thing, doesnt tell you much when you dont kno what u had and what u have now.

ok my base line horspower is 114 Hp with 125 lb pounds of torque, after putting the MSD on i got 84hp, so i lost 30 Hp then when i replaced all my wires, plugs and rotor, i got 87HP. sorry about the confusion. >

so if you got it dynoed at 114, an you lost power puttin on the msd.. then just take it off.. duh!... only makes sence right
He said he took it off in another thread, and the hp didn't go back up
to which I say to you Ivan, it wasn't the MSD, something else got messed up. Don't blame them man

compression lost maybe? that the only thing that I can think of that'll lost that much HP in a short time.
actually when i Take off the MSD the CAR runs like a CHAMP. I just didnt want to take the easiy way out and just return the MSD cause then i just wasted 200++ dollers for nothing. U know what im sayin??
if ya sell me the unit and the tach adapter for 200 I may take it! >
