The opti direct really wont do anything for performance. It will give you a stronger spark up in the higher rpms, so it might pull harder up top if you have a radical setup.

I have one and I ended up having to replace the opti anyway (bad optical). However, I took her down the road and she revs like a champ now! I also added MSD's DIS-4 so all in all, I pretty much have a $1500 ignition setup. I can't say what it did for top end and stuff cuz what few times I dynoed, I had made radical changes from one time to the next so I can't make an accuarte assumption about it. The next I dyno though, I will post my charts and everyone can decide what top end looks like w/ a Delteq. I really like it minus cost.
