MS for a 3 cylinder engine

Post by RedRotors »

Hi,

I read a lot of threads on different forum and I would like to get informations before to jump in.

engine is a 3 cylinder, carb, with distributior ignition. I would like to convert it EFI using a TBI, and later
add a turbo to run around 8-10psi of boost.

Is MS can control correctly spark for a 3 cylinder engine ?

Which MS version I need to use ?

Is there any professional guy that can give an hand to get the correct tune for NA and turbo setup ? Not for free of course.

Thanks,
Matt Cramer

Sure, a 3 cylinder distributor doesn't present any special challenges. With a GM type TBI, I'd say go with MS2 for this.

Where are you located? A tuner is likely to need to have the car in their shop to map it.
