MTM chip

The 3B uses a distributor in its ignition system.

The AAN uses individual coil packs for ignition and has
ignition control over each individual cylinder. This additional
control allows the engine to run at a much higher state of tune
than a 3B. The cross-firing distributor problem that is a known
issue with 3Bs running high boost is eliminated and individual
ignition and timing control is far more sophisticated engine
management overall.

Thus, as I said, the long-term goal of converting to AAN ECU and
direct ignition, along w/ RS2 intake & exhaust manifolds, turbo,
MAF and software. I can live w/ 380hp. :-)

I'll save the 500hp goal for when I get a 951S and have the money
and time to get it converted into something like the 3.1L 16v monster
that an acquaintance owns.

Taka,

Can you expand on that. Why is the ignition system the limiting factor?

Curiouser and curiouser :-)

Mihnea-
The 3B does not support 3 bar pressure transducers- the ignition system
is the limiting factor and limits the max amount of boost one can attain
safely with the 3B. That is the reason why if I ever commit to serious
power output, I'm going to direct ignition and AAN ECU.

I prefer the Lehmann chipset- very smooth power output.
