i will be tuning it all week and hopefully take a nice "baby run" at the track this friday. not on my slicks, just the 265 DRs that on there now. i just want to see about what it will do before i slap the slicks on there....
maybe slicks next week though, i am about to take the first drive with more than 4.5 psi!!!!!
this might be scary!!!
first low boost at 8.5 then high at 12.5 then i will work from there

sorry man, didnt get a chance to tune it at all...
tomorrow night is not looking good either, so its looking like next week...
running around on 12 psi right now though.... hehehe

Heres what I got off the website.. Figured you could put it in English for me
The Twin Power ignition amplifier incorporates both the CDI and transistor method ignition to provide optimum spark duration and maximum voltage output, resulting in crisper throttle response and a smoother engine powerband. The CDI method, capacity discharge ignition, provides maximum voltage by transferring all stored energy in the capacitor to the ignition coil so that the ignition current can buildup quickly, thus making the Twin Power very effective in the higher revs where a normal spark would tend to diminish. This strong rapid spark prevents the high rpm ignition miss that reduces peak power. The transistorized method generates high voltage by using transistors to cut off current to the coil, thus allowing for a long energy discharge. This longer spark duration allows the Twin Power to improve lower RPM throttle response and torque. The combination of the CDI and the transistor method incorporates two distinct systems into one high performance unit, hence the designation of Twin Power. The Twin Power produces a spark output that is typically 1.5-2.5 stronger than of the stock ignition system and consumes about 35% less power input than other ignition amplifiers. Each compact and attractive Twin power unit is constructed of durable anodized aluminum and sealed to prevent corrosion from moisture. General wiring harnesses are included in each unit to aid in installation and mounting. Vehicle Specific wiring harnesses are also available for certain models to further aid in installations that require intricate integration.(CARB E.O. # D-186-22)

basically its an ignition system that amplifies the spark going to the the coils so you can run larger gaps on your plugs. more spark more torque more power...

well its 600 dollars and i would even bother unless i was boosted. the benefits
NA would be minimal, a lot of boosted VQs have to set the gap to .024-.026 because of problems putting out the spark, this will solve it...
