Ignition upgrade for nitrous CRX

[mrchris1979]

I have an '88 CRX SI with D16a motor and frequent use of 50 shot wet nitrous. My ignition is totally stock except for the colder spark plugs. I'm not familiar with ignition upgrades but I've seen the MSD systems. What do I need to get for more spark? I think I need the amplifier, coil and modified cap. I'm not sure what and which parts to get, so any advice will help before I buy. Thanks

With a 50 shot you really don't need an aftermarket kit. But if you want one you can use just the coil and the cap.

i would recomend the following set up:

msd 6520 digital 6 $330 nitrous retard, two step and top end rev-limiters
msd 8208 blaster 2 coil $35.95 this one is better than the SS coil because it is oil filled and resists vibration
msd 82921 clear red dist cap $32.95
msd 32319 plug wires $65.00
spark plugs NGK BKR7E "pregaped 2 heat ranges colder than oem" $3.50 ea.

that is the best set up on the market for your application, we are an authorized dealer for MSD and keep all in stock, we can ship anywhere and match/beat prices. Thank You.

MSD wires are shit! I would not recomend them. Also you expect him to spend $477.90 + tax and shipping to run a 50 shot of N20? You are crazy, and also what you are doint is considered spam and I will ask you to stop or I will report you!

I appreciate the parts list. I also thought the 6520 was more suitable for my application but I was not sure what else I needed with it. I will be contacting you soon. I'll was also thinking about using Nology wires. Once I have the motor built, I'll probably start messing with higher shots I just want to make sure I have enough spark to handle the boost.

on a distributorless ignition wouldn't you need just the dis 6 and maybe higher capacity coil packs? if you had the blaster 2 wired in series with stock coil packs that would call for the fire department. not sure on this app if it has a distributor or not and if it does would it use a module since it is possibly cpu controlled? although it could still use a vacum advace and still be cpu controlled? ive never seen anyone hook up a blaster 2 coil to a import. that doesnt mean it cant be done but just curious on how that works. P.s. im well versed on hooking them up to points/condensor and HEI type ignitions.

Yes it does have a distributor and yes that coil will work since that's what I have. This coil looks a little different than what you are thinking about. This does sound like a good setup if you buy it. It's always a good idea to upgrade your ignition once you start adding a power adder such as nitrous or forced induction. Even if you don't have these things, it can't hurt to run a hotter spark.

hey hybird, just out of curiosity did you have to remove a module from the distributor or is your engine controlled by crank/cam sensor? and if so where did you wire it into to operate along with the crank/cam sensors. just curious because i was thinking about putting my backup box onto my neon. it has a distributorless ignition but it cant be too much different than your car because all the distributor does in your car is put power thru the rotor button and into the right spot on the cap. it has noting to do with advancing the timing or firing the coil.

Umm, to tell you the truth, I can't remember. I can take a look later on and see, but I believe the ignition box wires go to the coil and to the battery. I believe there is another wire, but I can't remember where it goes off hand. I'll let you know.

first off to answer the question posed by polish maff
we used the blaster ss coil alot when if first came out, the problem is i always tell my customers to buy two in case the first one goes out. haha the blaster 2 coil last 10 times longer because it is oil filled, just not as attractive.

now to address white teg. WTF is your problem. if the man ask a question i will help him out with the info that i have. he is not forced to purchase anything from me. by giving him these prices and part # he now has a baseline to go by when he goes to make his purchase. that is why i included the part #'s, so he could check else where or where ever he usually makes his purchases. spam is multiple posts to hit a large # of people with the same message.
i do not expect him to do this stuff. he asked what ignition to run, the items that i listed are the best for his application and for the $$$. I have been selling MSD wires for 35 years and they are "the shit" there are better out there but not for $65.00 oooo there i did it again, sorry about the "spam" and when you get done reporting me i got something to report in your mouth.

Funny how you have been selling something for about 15 years longer than the company has been around. Autotronic Controls Corp. was founded in 1970, and MSD came about even later. And you need to keep your attitude to yourself. If you notice this site and almost all others have PAYING sponsors that pay monthly/bi monthly/yearly fees to advertise their products, so don't get in a pissing match with someone that is pointing out that you are cheating the real vendors here.

listen we have been in business for 35+ years, so my numbers are alittle off, the point is i was trying to help this guy out and i get slammed, my attitude is a direct response to his attitude! if i need to become a "real vendor" i would i have too much already to worry about scrapping for sales here. again, the pricing is to give him a baseline to compare to. if he is paying more than the prices i listed it is too much, if he finds it cheaper great!!!! it just pisses me off when these people take this fourm stuff so seriously, it is not like we are at a dinner table where etiquette is important. mind your own buisness and try to help those that don't know as much as you, that is what these fourms are for. so where did i go wrong? was it the fact that i replied? the prices? the part #'s what was it. tell me master so i can keep from pissing you people off ever again.

I have multiple problems with you and what you are doing. 1st you are doing nothing but going to posts where people want help not a sales pitch, you reccomend things that they do not need, and you might be directing them in the wrong direction because you are tring to sell them something. 2nd almost every post I see you reply in you are tring to sell something, even when people are not asking to buy anything. and 3rd you are cheating the paying vendors. You have already been reported to the site admin, we will se what he says about it

You need to lighten up ace. You are causing problems and acting like a victim. If you want to sell something, USE THE FUCKING CLASSIFIEDS LIKE EVERYONE ELSE!!!! These forums are a great way for people to get information, and don't need to be cluttered by jackass' that don't know how to use them and run through posting up their for sale ads all over. If your business is doing so damn good then stick to information, become a vendor and support the site, and leave your sales pitch where it belongs, it's that simple.

I appreciate the info KLR and to everyone else that posted comments regarding KLR's actions should have just been reported to the administrator. Do your job and report problems and let the admin. deal with it accordingly. All this trash talk makes this forum a joke. I'm sure KLR got the point after the first comment. My original post was to get parts info, so if it included costs and where to buy, it is still justified as information, not direct sales. Anyway thanks to all that gave USEFUL info.
