Do I need to have my distributor recurved? I am using a stock 2.7 distributor on my carburetor 2.7 L engine I understand that to have a optimal performance a recurve is needed however is it really worth $500? My car is not set up for racing?
In other words will icy $500 worth of improvement from the modification ? My distributor is otherwise in excellent condition. |

How about the 123ignition setups?
A brand new distributor that you can set different curves to find one you like. http://www.123ignition.nl/products.php |

They have a model where you can adjust the curve using your cell phone. That's pretty crazy. If a recurve is $590 or so- the price doesn't really sound that bad. Does anyone have experience with these? I have read several good reviews online. If it works as described then the big issue would simply be finding the right curve numbers from someone. Does anyone know of a place to get different curve numbers for different setups? |
