with the epic does it have to be set up with the computer or could i just plug it in and ride. im really just tring to find some more bottom end power.but all around power is a + too.

just plug it in and ride. The installed curve is plenty good! You get lots more bottom end power ( turn out your low speed carb screws at least 1/8 th of a turn, you're burning a bit more gas now) There is only a slight gain at high rpm because of no detonation due to retard.

Theres not much differnce between stock timing and the enhancer. Stick with your stock one or buy the epic

i was thinking about buying a new msd enhancer. i just wanted to know everybody's opinion if it's worth $270. this will be for my 96, b1 i have a bpipe and stubby pump cone. im i going to see any gain in bottom end and is it going to be reliable.

I used them for quite a few years, never had any reliability issues that I can recall. However I always considered the low end or any power gain to be so small to not really make them worth it. I know of a few people who seem to notice a worthwhile difference in acceleration. I just don't have that feeling .

my friend had an msd in his sx and took it out and rode and said he didnt notice anything. so i guess its just not worth it even if its a very very slight difference

I have a used one lined up for $100 so I'm going for it. Spending a lot of money on ignition isn't in the cards right now.
