Anyone have any comments about these? Worth it compared to the Petronix unit?
Which one do you order? They do not seem to list an application for the 914, but they do list a generic one for Bosch ignitions.
thanks, Matt

I believe this is the model I have, which replace the Petronix that pooped out on me. The Crane works great, you can leave your ignition on, while the car is not running with no worries.

I have this same Crane unit and really like it. The car stays tuned, and also seems to start easier. BTW, you'll need the matching coil as well.
