I have a dude selling an HKS Twin Power from his SC300. He's not sure what version or wtf it is. It'll work with the NA Supra's won't it? Since we are both distributor.

Anyways, I was wondering if anyone have one and can take a pic of it installed for me. The TT guys have to splice in like 6 wires or something. This guy tells me this just plugs into the ignition wire that goes to the center of the distributor. So basically it's a plug and play unit. I was just wondering if this is true.

Also, how can I know whether his HKS Twin Power will work on my car? Is there a number or shit on the unit I should look for?

Dont know about that....I think it wires in between the stock harness and the coil to provide more of a charge to the coil to the distributor.


I would look into an MSD unit. It would save you some $$$ and you would still get the benifits

What's this MSD Unit? The only MSD item I know of is the no2 window switch. I looked on mvp under MKIV NA Ignition and can't find anything.

As to the HKS Twin, this guy is selling it around 200 so I think that's a decent price.

SHIT FUCK, lol. That's why I hate hinting anything, I'll get competition, haha. I don't want to turn a good deal into an eBay auction.

Talking about the Sport Compact Model

If you get the SCI-plus you can factor in NOS configurations.


For $200 though....I would get the HKS!!

 

[michaelvanle]

Does this look right? I guess supposedly it just plugs in between the connections (kinda like how you would install a turbo timer).

MSD is alot better, also get the MSD blaster SS coil to go with your 6AL or whatever model MSD ignition

Hey michaelvanle, that’s the one you're looking for. With the harness that looks like it comes with the unit, it's plug and play. Installed one about a month ago, paid $300.

I could not boost over 19 psi without breaking up. I did nothing but add a HKS DLI distributor, did not even change the spark plug gap. I have boosted as much as 29.5 psi with no issues. The HKS is the best ignition upgrage and so simple, I did look into the AEM CDI unit and the MSD, you would have to add an tach adaptor.

HKS bar none......

 

[kmn5]

no experience with the HKS,
but if you do go with a MSD
get the MSD 6 with BTM
this way you can pull back timing as boost levels increase
(the NA's timing is too far forward)

 

[DaveH]

That is the correct Twin Power for the NA, with the nice plug-n-play harness. I used one when I still had the distributor, I made 602 rwhp with no ignition issues.

 

[michaelvanle]

also get the MSD blaster SS coil

If I get the HKS, would it be even better if I upgrade to the MSD coil too?

Also, what's a handy ground in the engine bay? As you can see by the picture, it has like a prong thing. What's something handy around the coil I can just screw this under?

 

[kmn5]

hmmm, not sure.

Read in the paper catalog that it's made for the MSD6 series, but it doesn't say that on the online catalog...... :dunno:

But if you do go wiht a MSD coil, don't get the regular one
only the SS model puts out 48,000 volts @ 300mA

the standard Blaster coil only makes 45,000 Volts @ 140ma less then 1/2 of the Blastter SS model (they don't list it on the website tought) HA!

my main reason for getting the msd 6 BTM for for the timing retard, only other way to pull timg for the NA is with an AEM I think and that $$$ plus a total PITA to tune
(looked into the AEM, and heard major issues with tuning)

good luck

ps contact "Joe LaPille" [email protected] for info straight from MSD

I used the MSD Blaster coil with the Twinpower Distributor....Worked Perfect.

In regards to your PM to me, here is a link to how I hooked up my MSD 6A in my Lexus with a tach adapter 8910eis

I actually made my own diagram and you can hook it up in under 10 minutes very easily. Hope it helps if you choose the MSD route.

Michael - all you need is the HKS and you'll be fine. Chris made 624rwhp and even more with the 71 on there, no worries.....

I've had the HKS Twin Power on mine for years, literally. Works great. I paid retail for it though, $500 I think.
