EA81 Dual Coil Dizzy Mod

Post by BaronVonChickenPants » Fri Oct 28, 2005 7:48 pm

Found this on a subaru aircraft page:
http://jordan.snides.net/Image/subaru/ea81_dualcoil.exe
It's a pile of pdf pages in a self extracting rar file.

What do you reckon?

wow. a bit advanced for me. i dont like the idea of modifying my dizzy for it though.....

i think 1 x MSD Blaster 2 should suffice :lol:

Yeah I definitely wouldn't be doing it to my only dizzy.

Doesn't seem to complex, I wouldn't mind giving it a go, I spose my real question is would the gain be worth the effort.

In theory running 2 MSD Blaster 2's on this setup would give you some serious spark power and therefore some serious performance as well as pretty good redundancy should 1 die, but in practice how would it go?

:evil: i assumed it was safe to run that exe as you guys must have....
normally avoid running any exe that you just download, so easy to add a virus to them.........

anyway thats interesting on last page about adding a heat sink to the modules...didn't think it was changing their power dissipation....

anyway i'm just suggesting that maybe have the dizy drive 2 coils in parrallel, with that heat sink mod......not that I need to try that with my setup, just seeding the idea for someone else :P
some serious spark power and therefore some serious performance
I read elsewhere, once the spark (at whatever energy spark you got!) ignites
the fuel, a more energetic spark adds no more power/performance

I'm just guessing here but I think you'd widen the plug gap at the same time so it comes into contact with more air / fuel mix.

With that much power you'd be able to run a huge gap!

The wider the gap is, the higher the voltage potential required, before the spark gap will break down and arc., so no you can't run a huge gap.

Dual coils in parrallel will not really increase the voltage, but would give
a "hotter" arc once the arc starts, ie more current.

After some thought i came to the conclusion that, seeings how it's on an aircraft site, the mean purpose would be the redundancy more than anything else.
