no the opti is still there... it still needs the optical sensor to read the cam position.. it just takes the heat outta the cap...

Removes the high energy x-fer throughout the opti that creates the ozone which is what deteriorates the optical sensor. I can't really say much about the smoothness of idle or any improvement (solid roller 396 w/ large cam). But I have had no issues with it and I like the idea of 8 independent coils for obvious reasons. I plan on dumping a 200 shot pretty soon so we'll see on the spark issue, I'm sure I won't have any problems there. I think it'll net probably less than 10hp due to increased efficiency of a better spark and more complete burn. Car isn't consistant at the track to give an ET difference.

My car is pretty consistent so I'll have to advise when I get it back to the track, I'll do some motor runs and spray. I also be bumping up to a 200 shot one day and the coil per cyl makes me feel better.
