Re: Vacuum Advance and why to use it on the street
Started off with the MA MSD I have now. Tried every possible combo of springs and weights. Meaning different initial settings and different advance curves. No matter where we put it, nothing changed. Also tried a VA MSD as a last resort.
Had the same problem as Eric stated. It was undrivable no matter where you set the curve and pinging, glowing pipes, etc. was even worse.
I don't expect you to understand this is the best set-up for street driving. But it is the best set-up for this application.
Again, how am I leaving alot on the table as far as quality of the tune? Please be specific with your answer.
Great gas mileage, great idle quality, 13 inches of vac. at idle which equats into crisp throttle response. I can drive the thing all day long in heavy traffic and it doesn't overheat or load up. I can pull into a stop and let the car set for 5 min. or 1 hour. I put the key in the ignition and bump the switch and it fires every time without dragging or touching the throttle. In 4th gear pulling up a steep incline at speeds below 45 mph or so, no pinging, no power loss. I'm on my second set of plugs in 9 to 10 years.
This is a serious question: Please tell me, how can it get any better?
