Default Ignition Amplifier

Anybody have any experience any of these on the GS300?

Heard it was good for FI guys since our colder step plug's spark doesnt fire as great.

HKS Twin Power DLI

XS Power Pack

What is Misfire anyways? I know that it means the spark wasnt able to ignite the fuel. But how does it feel when it misfires? Hesitation?

i dont believe the DLI will work on a stock gs300 n/a coil pack. i could be wrong. carrying over from the supra stuff, that is a very preffered way to go when moving to a stand alone like the AEM. as for the XS piece, you can get the kenne belle boost-a-pump or boost-a-spark for cheaper, and its basically the same thing. i had the boost-a-pump on my supra for the ignition and it made a huge difference. i think i paid something like $150 for it, maybe a little more. all the XS piece is is the kenne-belle relabeled.

Some of the IS300 Guys are using it. And i think they just tapped it to here.

This is from a member of my.is Hope he doesnt mind



I might just see if i can locate a used unit. Because while coming into boost, soemtimes on the 1st lb of boost, my car hesitates as if the fuel didnt ignite.

in my experience, misfire has occured at high boost only, never at a such a low level. maybe when you are having problem, check your air fuels at that point. maybe you are running lean or rich at that point and it is really a problem with your FPR or something else fuel related. what ecu are you running and also when is the last time you put new plugs in???

The Is300 and GS300 used the waste spark system. Is this good for F.I? I wouldn't think so. AEM run waste system on the Supra tt also. For those of you that haven't use the HKS DLI, it does work. It's proven on many high hp supra. Then you have AEM CDI, this unit give you more problems then helping.
