I was wondering, I have a 1997 GSR and would MSD make the V-tec kick in better. I heard that v-tec is mostly electrical would anyone want to comment on that.

 

No, it's not electrical and an MSD unit would not help anything but making your pocketbook lighter.

 

nope...the main thing with vtec is mechanical anyways...the oil pressure locing the higher lobs of the cams in place...

 

cool man thanks alot saved me a couple of pennies.

 

but get a nice msd with ecu and u can set redline, :P msd ingnition with external coil is on my list of things to do : - )

 

I don't recommend MSD ignition at all. After 4 years that I had my Digital 6+ it took a crap on me. It had fried itself and left me stranded for a few hours before I had rewired it.

Besides many people have used the stock ignition teamed with an external coil and found them good up to 400hp. So yes, I think the OEM ignition is suited for most people.

 

VTEC :a:
