Why can't I use Mallory hyfire ignition as a launch controller... Why couldn't I use my hyfire 6 ignition? It has a 2 stage rev limiter. I could use one as my launch controller and the other to protect my engine from reving to high. Also can using these launch controllers all the time cause problems?
Great! But I think you misunderstood the last question. I was asking if using launch controllers all the time could hurt the engine. It just sounds awful. Also the popping seems as if it would cause major knock retard hurting performance.
If you have cats, it will destroy them quickly. Also i think if the rev limiter isn't very fast acting, aka not bring the spark back in after cutting it out, it will let more unburned fuel into the exhaust and possible cause some muffler damage. Something I learned... your engine doesn't care what kind of sounds it making. 6k rpm on the 2 step is no different than hitting 6k rpm on your way up to a 7k rpm shift, except for maybe the time you spend at that rpm.
