I have chosen to stay with mags until PRISM is available from GAMI. The electronic ignition systems *I* have looked at are not what I want to happen to *MY* engine. Advancing the timing at very high power gains you no increase in power but decreases the detonation margin and places a lot more stress on the engine. We demonstrate this on a running engine during the APS class. It's a bad idea. Walter
