More performance mod questions (ignition)
I'm a bit late to this discussion, but I have a question regarding performance
mods. Now, I have a 90 SPider with the Motronic injection. I have an AR
Ricambi chip in it which I have been running for about 3 years and love it.
I also have a K&N cone filter and love it too. I used to have a 12" glasspack
in place of the center muffler, but since have gone back to a new OEM center
muffler and a Ansa rear muffler. My question is, what kind of improvements
would I get with a hotter spark box or coil such as an MSD box? Better
throttle response, more HP, or maybe nothing? I understand how most other
performence mods work, but I'm pretty clueless when it comes to the ignition
mods. I know these things create more voltage and thus bigger sparks, but it
seems to me that with the same abount of air/fuel and the same compression, a
spark is a spark is a spark. Won't any spark ignite the mixture the same?
