All I can do is echo grimreaper. It is the most bang for your buck. Period!
I will admit that it is a little bit intimidating because there's a lot to take in. But if you want the most out of your car and are willing to learn, it's the way to go. I ran it in both AFC mode...
I don't like a bunch of wires going to my battery terminals either.
I currently have mine grounded to chassis ground and there are no issues. Yet! Over time corosion will form and cause the same issue as before. That's one of the reasons jetjock recommends doubling the ground. But for...
Now now...we've had enough hatred on this topic already. Numbers only please. :)
C'mon Mike....you know I would never let you down. I do have a box of tissue just in case though... ;)
I'm not sure what is up with that spike. There's another member (grimreaper) that has roughly the same setup as mine and with the Igniter Mod, he too has that spike.
I'll take another log and aggressively ease in to it instead of stabbing it and see if I still hit 117*. :)
The Igniter is kind of like an electronic switch. It takes timing signals from the TCCS and switches power to the coil. In any electronics circuit, if ground is not 100% it sort of hunts to find ground and weird things result. Even though your multimeter measures good continuity, resistance...
Yes, it is ok to ground to the battery. On the (-) that is... ;)
The recommendation is to double up the grounds. One to chassis and one to battery ground.
I used a 12 gauge wire; but, I had to open the hole a bit to fit it through. A 14 gauge wire should fit through no problem. I chose 12 gauge because I wanted a few extra strands. ;)
I didn't ground to the battery. I grounded to one of the bolts that secure the Igniter.
Review Crisp's write...
I was pleasantly surprised at the results from the Igniter Ground Mod that I did today and wanted to post them up.
In the first log look at how jagged my timing data is. At times, there was as much as a 10* shift. Not good!
After the mod it is much more stable. There are all sorts of...
Fixed your guess for you SideWinder... (Mr. Fat Fingers... :biglaugh:)
I don't have sheets; but, at 8 psi the car made 278 hp and at 14 psi it made 298. I knew something was wrong at this point; but, just to confirm it we did a pull at 16 psi and only picked up 3 hp. That's when we stopped...
