my rotor is bigger than your rotor

[Claus Vegener]

I have tried the Jacobs ICE system
It is triggered from the original coil through a resistor. and
connect to the center electrode of the distributor.
No change in management and easy to switch in and out.
It should measure the current to each plug and keep it constant;
 but the F5DPOR have
so low a resistance, that the system stops measuring.
I changed to the recommended sparks in the middle of a track event, when
my fuel pressure were too high so I have a hesitation above 5000 rpm.
I noticed no change running Jacobs with F5DPOR, Bosch F6DC
or factory ignition with F5DPOR so I dismantled the Jacobs just a week ago
to give room for a waterinjection Aquamist
Factory ignition supports 400 Hp to my experience but getting rid of the distributor
at that place would be fine.
