What benefits have you seen? Can you feel the diffrance?

i have only driven it with it on, but from what the other guys at work said about it, it works well. but you would notice it more on a higher tune of engine running for example more boost and fuel.

What sort of power are you planning to run?

The only reason you run the Twin power is because you are starting to lose spark. If you aren't then don't waste your money. There really isn't that much of a difference running an amplified spark, we ran 400bhp without one.

Not sure on that one !. I am fitting all the necessary bits to my RX7 to run high power at a later date, and have just fitted the new Rotary HKS Twin power unit. Cars probably running at 320fwhp currently and first observation after install was the instant start. When hot the car has always started immediately, but cold took a few rotations, now it starts like hot, first kick. The car runs smoother and picks up quicker. I know it could be a just a perception, but I,ve had the car for two years running basically the same set up, and it just runs smoother. Whether there was an issue with low power spark before the unit was fitted, I don't know, but it ran well before, but now appears to run even better...so I'm happy.

To be fair, better spark is never a bad thing.

Seen a fair few faulty HKS DLI's though.
