I'm not sure what exactly that jacobs thing is, but once again to put things in perspective, I am running 500+ rwhp, twin turbo charged, with a stock distributor, and MSD 6AL and MSD TFI coil.....

Since im getting good responses' on this post I got another question.

Im getting the Jacobs FC 5.0 ignition kit for the price of $399.99. I have heard a lot of good things about it and it is in my price range. What are some of your guys opinions about this purchase, and what can i expect to see from the mod?

Thanks again guys!!!

The stock TFI ignition is plenty for a naturally aspirated engine. With nitrous or a supercharger I personally would only use MSD.

ok so save the money now and just go MSD after I supercharge. I plan on supercharging and I don't want to have parts that become obsolete. I guess I'll just be paitent....haha
