Venthur - 123 Ignition is an Australian company that makes some pretty impressive, highly customized, electronic ignition distributors. :)

Actually I believe (I'll be corrected if I'm wrong ;) ) that the guy who designed the 123 distributor (Marcel) is Canadian ( http://www.tdcperformance.ca ), and the company which manufactures and distributes it is Dutch ( http://www.123ignition.nl ). Ted Cross ( http://www.123ignition.com.au ) holds the Australian distribution rights.

I'm always happy to be corrected. :) I just googled 123 Ignition and the Aussie site was the first to come up. That may be because I used Google Australia. :lol: Though I didn't limit my search to Australian sites.

sgc was mostly correct. the maker of the 123 dizzy is a firm in the Netherlands. Marcel Chichak did NOT design the 123 dizzy. He provides a layer of support between the Dutch firm and the customer.

Why must ignition systems use such flammable names..


Surely fire is the last thing thing you want from an ignition system.


hehhe.. nice.. that sentence works on a couple of levels...

Scorcher sounds much nicer than Smoker or Burner.
