Hello. I have an 83 245T with an M47. It has a T3/T4, gold injectors, still K jet (and keeping it that way) running about 18psi. The car runs strong and performs well. However to get it to run that way I had to grind the boost retard stop down in the distributor and set the base timing way advanced, around 28 degrees or so.
As you can imagine this makes the engine act very erratic at idle and low rpms. I would rather be able to set the base timing back to the factory 10-12 degrees and have some sort of ignition system that could advance or retard timing with boost in a linear manor with some level of adjustment. I know about the msd 6btm. That seems like a very dated setup and I don't love the idea of my advance being done by the distributor and the retard being done separately at the ignition module. I figured by the year 2020 there has to be some sort of stand alone ignition set-up that can be fine tuned for boosted cars. Any ideas? Thanks
