aftermrket ignition upgrades vn6

[vnpedro]

im looking at upgrading my ignition and am unsure which type to get and depoending on what i go for how much would the performance increase and what overall affect it would have on the engine.

Its a VN V6, why the hell do you want an aftermarket ignition? Performance increase next to nill, waste of money and time.

^^ agreed. and youve posted in the wrong section

the wasted spark setup used on the V6 is one of the better stock ignitions around. possibly some new quality coils/leads/plugs is about it unless yo uwanna spend over 1k doing the MSD DIS4 upgrade which you realy don't require unless your aiming for 9000rpm and need ignition retards and stepped rev limits like when you run nitrous.

have a look at my setup if oyur interested but total overkill for a standard and even a modified setup

i bought some msd coils (the three seperate vr ones). Didn't do **** all for performance. Maybe quietened the idle a bit and made it a bit smoother. One good benefit they have more than one coil inside so they last longer than the factory unit.

I'll echo the sentiment that it's a waste of money. I never touched the ignition system on my V6 chase for sub-7sec times. Even ran 8mm spark leads to the end.

A good set of leads and plugs is all that is needed unless your going big power, and even then not much else is needed.
