I\'m considering getting an HKS twinspark set together with wiring loom, but before I do any feedback and tangible results noticed.

Currently running 99 spec twins with full mods and fuelling.

stops ignition break up on high boost, you wont notice it on standard boost.
On high boost say 13psi plus mine reved better after fitting and we saw a small increase power

ive heard its only really worth doing on a modded FD, i.e you need the extra spark to handle the extra power.  Not really worth doing on a standard or lightly modded FD

Some of you have prolly heard me say this before but its deffo worth doing on any car with water/meth injection as the water dapens the spark a little.
Noticed a marked improvment when i fitted this after i fitted water/meth.
Im running stock twins at the mo (soon to be knights sports) at 13psi and no porting.

Mine only has exhaust/cat/intake and it made all the difference!

Hi Steve hows life ?

Hi pete, Life is good mate thanx :D fitted it myself Pete, got it injecting in the elbow and pre intercooler.
Its the 2d aquamist one so a little more install than a standard but easy enugh and am also logging it via the datalogit.
Got it injecting at about 5psi with the secondarys and at 50/50 water meth.
Thinking of pulling some fuel soon when i fit the knightsports twins to make a little more power.

These work o.k.

For a water injected car you really though do need a full proper racing quality CD system.

I have a very detailed discussion on this here for people interested in Water Injection http://www.aquamist.co.uk/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=1590&page=11  and the ability of the HKS DLI. For what it is its o.k. and I have fitted them to literally hundreds of RX7\'s........ in every case its better than stock

Here is a small MSD CD system....compare the size to the HKS unit

^ Yeah size does matter (like homo\'s and ladies say) :Ladys-man

You just can\'t pack enough into that HKS box, my triple CD box set up and CD coils are allot bigger but also pack a much bigger punch :eek:

Here is pics of the RR COP CD system mounted up (CD boxes next to battery on custom holder), wiring harness and COP\'s installed.

Few Grasshoppers & bugs from extensive real world testing on the front bumper! they stand no chance at "moderate" speeds :)













Covered 1600km in last 2 weeks :D big boost bro! CD makes a massive difference over the HKS DLI and stock coils/leads combo.

Can run 3 times the amount of water injection and much more difference in ignition timing and also fuel mixture with full race CD system, the HKS DLI really is very limited in what it can take by comparison.
