M&W cdi ignition installed

i found one of these on ebay for a steal. it came with a small harness to plug into the factory connector.
there was nothing wrong w/my bosch box but i installed this unit anyway.
big difference in the way the car behaves. its way quicker, the throttle response is much more crisp and immediate, before the install i had an issue with engine knock at WOT around 4-5k, sometimes. that no longer happens.
they are worth checking out if ur in the market for an ignition.
it could be the best option for our cars. its australian made and i think the same guys make the motec stuff

"..engine knock..no longer happens.."

Possible indication of retarded spark vs Bosch.....

If, in an air-cooled 911, you can hear engine knock at 4-5K RPM then you have something VERY wrong.

Only saw one Pro 10 on EBay and it was for a Honda, do you have a link to the one with the adapter?
