I would consid= er using a new ignition system under one of two conditions:  Either it= was developed by a large, mainstream manufacturer and has been used for at= least 10 years by thousands of customers - OR if Brent Regan was involved.=

As for Steve's report of no improvement in "stati= c RPM, climb rate or fuel burn" I wouldn't expect any.  The spark will= most likely not be advanced from standard in any of those modes.  But= I would expect an improvement in high-altitude climb rate and in cruise sp= eed at altitudes above 12,000.  And I don't know the difference betwee= n "curve A" and "curve B."

I can confirm a rumor, from a very reliable sour= ce, that a new electronic ignition is in the final stages of testing. = I won=E2=80=99t mention the names of who is involved, but their initials a= re Brent Regan and Monty&n= bsp;Barrett.  This is just between us, OK?
 
Ste= ve Colwell  Legacy IO-550  (temporarily equipped with Slick Mags)=
Just did my first= "long" trip: 6-hours MYF-CMA-TRK-VNY-CMA-MYF on my new P-Mag.  Operat= ed perfectly, but made no difference in static RPM, climb rate or fuel burn= .  However I'm on curve A so will clip the jumper and try curve B then= post a report.  Stand by.
