How long does it take to attatch electronic ignition to a Sprint? I have a pirahna pointless system that I need to put on to this green Sprint to get it to run.

I think there are three wires. So not very long at all.

My advice would be to take a little extra time and install the control box inside the car. You need to be careful threading the wires through the bulkhead grommets but it's worth it. Try to install the box vertically with the cable underneath, it prevents water/moisture running down the cable directly into the box. A very worthwhile mod but make sure you keep a points conversion kit with you at all times !

Had no troubles with my Omex Clubman, good little unit.

Still working on getting the best from the launch control but haven't really had time to fiddle with it.

Very smooth cut though, which is a benifit.

Not tried any of the others!

If it's pointless then why fit it?
