What is Trigger Angle?

Post by 238ur50 »

Ok we are working on getting a car with a Hall Effect Sensor and 60-2 running spark on MSnS-E with wheel code setup

My first question is what is a trigger angle and how do we figure it out?

Second question is how do we go about finding the trigger positions?

Also how do we determine the dwell settings?

Also if i am driving 2 coil packs do i hook both up to the to the same pins on the db37 connector.

Thanks

As Lance says, check out that page. Within the last month I added a spreadsheet to help calculate your trigger numbers.
