for those that don't know how to, or can't be bothered having there pulsar dissy modded, then DON'T use it. However if you do Mod them they will work just fine.
Myself, I'll stick to points thanks very much

Have you done a stock one?
I'm running a stock one. No problems, and yes it's better than a crap small bore 850 dizzy, although I reckon the Cooper S dizzy would be really good too, but they are expensive and hard to find.
The D4R85 gave my car the top-end it needed. The old 850 dizzy was thrashed and was reaching amx advance tooearly, gave good low-end but no top end. people who saw my car at the dyno day could vouch for this. Now if I went back to the dyno it would be much better now!
I don't need to do a stock one. There are PLENTY of threads about why NOT to run a stock one, use the search function.....
And if you don't want to listen to me, don't Listen to MR Russell.
As I said I would prefer to run a points. if others want to run pulsar, good for them, just don't run a stock one without knowing what CAN happen.
Re comparing an old clapped out 850 dissy to a much younger pulsar dissy isn't a fair comparison. You should be able to get a good perforamce out of points. Just find a decent one, it's not as if mini dissy's are hard to find or expensive.
Again, there are plenty of posts on this and if your keen to actually know the FACTS then go read them

It appears you haven't run one.
I am and I love it. Guess what, my 850 dizzy was rebuilt by Rhemac motors. Yes it was dodgy, but guess what 850 dizzys are.
I voted for "I run one, and I like" or something simliar, and it seems so have many other people.
<edit> Yes I have read all the stuff on here about NOT using one, no need to do a search, I've posted in most of those threads ayways.
I took this all into consideration before I put one in. I will get a modded one in, then I shall make a thread about how much better, or differnt I think it is, because I have also read info saying that the 'S' dizzy is not that good for 1275 minis. Interestingly I did a google search on this stuff and found some really nice info. Look back a page I think and see that chart I posted. It actaully also says that the cortina GT dizzy is pretty good for an a-series but doesn't fit like a Pulsar one does.
No i don't run one, I said that, did i not. My infomation comes from Mr Russell first hand. He has seen and has had to rebuild a number of motor's because of the effects of the incorrect curve on the pulsar. That's why he does an ausmini special price of modding them so they work, as he doesn't want to see anymore people have there motors go bang. Simple really. I think I would trust information from an engineer that works on motor 7 days a week for many many years....
As I have said, there's nothing wrong with a pulsar dissy once modified correctly. There is an issue with them if you don't.
YOu may say that it performs better , and it may, I don't dispute that, but that dead spot you feel... whats that doing to you motor?
Again, I will say this, I prefer my DODGY old Lucas Dissy, with my DODGY old Points. Is there anything wrong with that, is that ok with you?
Tell me this though, do you just like to argue
