Those CAFE guys are smoking too much of the local
Northern California product. So are the voters :)

After looking into the products website, it is very expensive compared to
other
stuff out there. I noticed that they are right here in Howell. Anyway it got
me
looking for other off the shelf systems that may be out there.


have you seen this?

They say they have a drop in rotary application.

Wow that looks great! Two ignition capacitors for the CD
ignition is a huge step in the right direction.
450 volts is also great. I called the local dealer and price
is $1700 for the complete system less sensors and injectors.

I spoke to Alex but he was not sure about the Mazda system.
From the web site it also looks like they have a system mounted
in a box. There is PC assisted tuning which is sorely
missed in Tracy's system.

Basically what it is is a PC board that replaces the stock computer
board in a series 6 (1989-1991) or series 7 (1991-2004) RX7 according
to Alex. All stock sensors, wiring and injectors are used. Makes it very
simple to install in a car.

Here is a list of US dealers. They have dealers world wide and
the system seems to be made in Australia or perhaps China :)


I would not be a bit surprised if this was not the same
ign. circuit designed by John Clarke and published in Silicon Chip
mag.

Paul,

I just took a quick glance at your website. You mentioned nothing about air
planes. That is something that we have wanted to get into but have never had
a chance. Also Neel has experience tuning on a 3 rotor setup so our company
is well poised to help the rotary community.

Alex,

no airplanes? Are you sure you have the right web site?

On second thought the drop in board cannot be CD ignition system as that
would
mean changing the coils. Perhaps the stand alone unit can do CD.

We need clarification on that point Alex.
