(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I concluded that most 914 people are camera shy which might explain the lack of installation videos for this product.
I recently found out that there is a web site called Cameo, to where you can pay celebrities to speak. I thought it might be fun to do a 123 dizzy installation video, and have either Gordon Ramsay or Adam Savage from mythbusters providing the instructional voice over.

I installed a blue tooth version in my 74 1.8 L-Jet and it worked awesome. It is way easy to install and program. Car runs like it never did before. I am going to jump in on this group buy and pick one up for my six. Thanks for setting it up !

I bought the bluetooth version for my Ljet, and will get around to installing it very soon hopefully. I may need to pick your brain on what program you used in a few weeks!
If you do buy one for your six, that would make you number 5 in the group buy. Just one more for the 10% discount (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |

Damn...just bought a 123 ignition for my 74 2.0 djet last friday. Checked all websites (vendors and the manufacturer) and at that time there was no tune+ with bluetooth availaible for my car.
Two days ago the tune+ with bluetooth all of sudden appeared on the website of the manufacturer (and still not on the vendors website). Damn if I knew this ... I even spoke with the seller before buying.... Not amused  greeting from Belgium, neighbouring country of The Netherlands... home of the 123 ignition manufacturer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) UPDATE : had contact with the manufacturer and they confirmed that their local dealers were not informed yet .... buggers dax |

I'm contemplating two of these. I have a stock 1970 1.7. In looking at the website it mentions the 123 distributor does work with EFI systems that need a trigger from the distributor. I am a relative newbie but I thought the 1.7 Djet was triggered by points on the distributor?
The other car I have is a 6cyl GT clone that I'm prepping for vintage racing. The motor was built using a factor 2 liter 914-6 case, 2.2 pistons and cylinders with a longer stroke 2.4 crank for higher compression, weber 46's. It is currently running an electro motive crank fire which most vintage race orgs frown on. Would this be a good replacement for that system for a vintage race car? The engine is out so now is the time to do this. I'm assuming the blue tooth version would give me the most programming flexibility and ease. Anyone with experience with this application? Thanks for your help. Jerry   |

Has anyone else had a problem with these 123's cutting out? I bought one for D-Jet on the first group buy to install when I finished my 2056 build. The thing didn't even last 1000mi. I finally just put the stock dizzy back in, and the car hasn't given me an issue since.
Thanks, Chris |

QUOTE(123ignitionusa @ Mar 1 2021, 09:42 PM) Unlike the last GB, for this one, orders will be shipped on a first come first serve basis. The first six will be refunded when number hits 6 and the code will be changed to reflect 10% discount. If the GB hits 10 then the free shipping will kick in and refunds will be issued. All went well the last time. I try to be as transparent as possible. Thanks for your support. I would like to mention that the PC programmable units are few only because of demand being so low. So if any order the TUNE it will no doubt be a wait. That is not the case with the Bluetooth TUNE+ or the switched models including the D-Jet. Ed Hi Ed, Order placed! How many orders so far? Hoping we get more than 10- looks like you hit the 6 threshold already. This is my second one. I have already replaced my D-Jet with the old style 123 (no BT) and love it. This one is going to be the BT version for non D-Jet for my 68 912. |

At first it started with a real faint stumble, then the car would just start bucking real bad and finally died on the hwy. Had it towed home, and the thing fired up like nothing once it got off the truck. It was the first time I have ever had to tow the car in the 20yrs of ownership. It drove fine for a few days and started acting up again, swapped out the dizzy on the side of the road, and it's been fine since. I would send it back, but was told it's only a one year warranty. |

QUOTE(Morph914 @ Mar 1 2021, 05:19 PM) Rats!!! I just purchased one last month. Oh well, win some, loose some. Looking forward to getting it installed here very soon. Cheers, John Me too. Haven't even opened it yet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) So much for stockpiling parts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) Everyone should pay me a little $ to buy stuff so it will go on sale. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

what would be the advantage of having the blue tooth programmable version for d-jet vs my current one ? i have had the 123 for a few years, running strong no issues. i use the vac setting with i think is curve b. so it’s a pain t have to change the curve setting manually, i gues thst would be the advantage? it’s tempting!!
so 10% discount? if anyone wants a non-blue tooth version, mine has 2 years and less than 2500 miles on it, still mint like new(like the rest of my car) i would sell it for $100 off new thats a 20% savings- pm if interested. |

I just ordered a bluetooth unit for my '75 L-jet. I got a 10% discount so the group buy is in the 6 - 10 range!
