·has anyone dynoed before and after a ignition amplifier mod such as the hks twin power dli or other brands? what kind of gains could be expected?
if you run a larger gap on your plugs, wouldn't there be more likelyhood of detonation by causing the gas to burn quickersilvino said:I think you'll expect to not miss and maybe gain the ability to run a larger gap on your plugs which in turn will get you power. Not a ton of power but it may give you a little bit. The big power gain would be if you are missing. My car was missing on the dyno and I saw a loss of up to 89 WHP when I missed.

thanks for clearing that up for meAZWildcat said:
Jeremy,
Detonation is caused by the spontanoeus combustion of air/fuel. If the fuel ignites from the plug's firing, it isn't detonating. That said, it could still ping depending on many factors.

That's a ping.Boost Junkie said:It can detonate if the plug fires. The plug fires, the flame front begins to spread, the cylinder pressure increases along with the temperature of the mixture, the mixture reaches the fuel's auto-ignition temperature/pressure and BAM! The remaining unburned mixture detonates. That's the most common mechanism of detonation.
