Pete,
You won't likely see much difference going to a
P-mag from a lightspeed ignition.
They are more alike than different when it comes to
practical engine performance.
Same goes for the old Electroair unit I
had.
I have used all three at various times and flew
with dual mags for awhile also. All have had failures but the dual P-mags
I have now seem very reliable since the boys down in Azle,Texas have worked the
bugs out.

Just did my first "long" trip: 6-hours MYF-CMA-TRK-VNY-CMA-MYF on my new
P-Mag. Operated 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.

I just installed a new P-Mag on the O-320-E2D (low compression) in
my Lancair-235/320. Followed the instructions and all ok on the
first-start and engine run-up. Will finish buttoning up the cowl in
the morning and looking forward to my first flight on this type of
electronic ignition - had rotten luck with Lightspeed Plasma III, so hope
this one works out. If so, will replace my other old Bendix mag with
another new P-Mag.
The installation included the jumper to make the timing the "A"
schedule. Any advice/cautions about running the timing on the "B"
schedule?
