The ignition system is a very critical, and commonly overlooked,
link in obtaining maximum power, drivability, and reliability
from your car. The major components in the ignition system
are the spark plugs, spark plug wires, and the ignitors.
As you increase the performance of the car, you will place
a larger demand on these components then what they were
designed for. We’ve seen significant increases in
how well the car performs by simply addressing the car’s
ignition requirements.
Need
ignition? Jacob’s rotary FC1000 is the one
to have. We’ve installed this system on countless
RX-7s and have been nothing but pleased with the
results. Cleaner plugs and no misfires. This is a
true capacitive discharge system, not just a simple
restrike system like the HKS Twin-Power. This system
actually amplifies the spark with up to three times
the spark intensity. The FC1000 can be used with
the factory ignition coil, but many often maximize
the system with the addition of a performance coil.
An additional feature is a dedicated tachometer output.
This lead can be used for a shift light input, rpm
activated switch, additional injector controller
input, etc. Priced reasonably, this system installs
easily with standard MSD connections. Install one
today.

Magnecor’s
R-100 Racing (10mm) Ignition Cables feature Magnecor’s
exclusive 2.5mm high capacity Metallic Inductance EMI
Suppressed conductor consisting of stainless steel wire
precisely wound at 200 turns per inch over a ferrimagnetic
core. The insulating jacket is made entirely of Magnecor’s
exclusive TC-1500-HS high strength aerospace grade silicone
rubber, and its single layer construction will prolong
the jacket’s insulating ability by conducting extreme
heat away from hot-spots that occur near over-the-limit
heat sources.
Our
favorite wires made by Japan’s leading supplier
to the electronics industry, NGK wires have a unique
internal spiral wound core to reduce resistance and
are housed in a teflon coated blue housing to minimize
electromagnetic interference.

Keep
your ride running at its best. Spark plugs should
be changed once a year or every 12~15,000 miles.
Bad plugs are the #1 cause of hard starts, engine
missing, poor emissions, etc. For stock or mildly
modified cars, use two #7 leading plugs and two #9
trailing plugs. Heavier modified cars may need to
consider using four #9 plugs, for cooler plug temperatures.
For
those with extreme needs, here’s your plug. These
are the exact same plugs we use on our championship
drag race cars. Nothing has a more intense and focused spark. The
thin single wire electrodes are gap adjustable for tunability. One
very important fact: these plugs do have an internal resistor. This
is a must for modern EFI cars since RF interference can cause major
issues with you engine management. Accept no substitutes.
Note:
These plugs are only needed in high horsepower
racing applications. They foul easily when used in street or everyday
use.
