Direct Ignition System, DIS, Black, Cam Sync, Coils, Ignition Box, Ford 289/302, Kit

The MSD Direct Ignition System (DIS) controller greatly simplifies the conversion from conventional distributor-type engines to a coil-per-plug configuration. Benefits include the elimination of distributor cap and rotor wear; reduced spark energy losses caused by long spark plug wires; and the ability to optimize your ignition tuning parameters. The integral 2.5 bar MAP sensor and optional temperature sensor input mean you get the most power and reliability out of your naturally aspirated or forced induction engine. Nitrous-fed engines benefit from the included Step Retard feature. Drag racers will appreciate the 2-Step rev limiter and Launch Retard features. Real-time DIS configuration and tune-up changes are a snap with easy-to-use MSDView software.

Thanks to the real-time monitor feature of MSDView, and 8 MB of internal data storage in the DIS controller, data monitoring and logging have never been easier. The clearly labeled wiring harness, along with a full line of supporting components and accessories, take the difficulty and guesswork out of converting traditional distributor-type engines to a modern and efficient coil-per-plug ignition system.

Features include:
• Easily convert to a coil-per-plug ignition system
• Pre-programmed timing maps
• Fully programmable 2D and 3D timing maps provide complete timing control
• Individual Cylinder Timing (ICT) allows precise tuning
• Built-in 2.5 bar MAP sensor for boosted applications
• Optional temperature sensor input to control timing based on temperature
• Fully potted electronics and sealed connectors for maximum durability
• Easily programmable through a Mini-USB communication port
• Programmable max rev and launch RPM limiters provide engine protection
• Consistent holeshots thanks to programmable launch timing retard
• Single timing step retard ideal for pulling timing for nitrous applications
• On-board data acquisition
