Modification update (done in autumn 2005/spring 2006):

Ignition: Installed a bicycle 36-1 wheel at rim and a Ford OEM VR sensor at air cooling housing. This unit triggers an EDIS4 module. I use just one coil output (2 cylinder!).
Car feels much better than preveous 1 trigger sensor per rev (OEM Visa at 45°BTDC).

A PSA distributor is also installed at cam shaft output - but this signal isn't used at the moment.

MS Code: MSnSExtra 025x1 and MT2.25b637.

Hardware: Minor things tried out, for example swapped to OEM metal air filter - no difference felt.
