MSD vs. ACCEL

Just to be on the safe side you might want to alter the mount so you can keep both.

WOW, Jegs is quick! Ohio to Cali in two days. I went with an Accel. Don't know about a difference in mpg's, but there is definitely more power, especially on the freeway. But i also got one of those throttle enhancer calibrators, so i know a lot of it has to do with that. By the way, is this "e-core" design really all it's cracked up to be, or do they hype it up to try & sell more?

Did you get one of the Caspers throttle calibration units or something similar? The one I'm thinking of goes between the TPS and the TPS harness.

I took the gaps down a little bit closer to stock. I was worried that with the mega gaps I might have firing problems if the box went out. I live in a normally high humidity area, and didn't want to take too big of a chance.
I think I had maxed out gains either way. I know Jacobs recommends stepping up in increments of .005 until you notice hesitation or loss of power, then move back down that .005.
