Default 36 to 1 trigger wheel
I see MSD are doing these for a 2wd cosworth.

Any advantages to having one of these over a standard 4 lug type?
Also it would require a remap to suit.

Your thoughts please.

You can't just fit a 36-1 if your cars ecu is setup for 4 lugs, internal calibration will not understand the timing points.
A remap as they are known will not fix it either.

They probably can, if someone thought it would be worth it.
