CDI capacitive discharge ignitions
I have been looking into this and the concept seems like it would work well for forced induction. Any of you guys have any experience with this? Is it worth it or is 10psi not enough boost to worry about ignition upgrades anyway?

sorry, i thought you meant the ones all over ebay. i would think that adding a module from the ecu to the coils which already have circuitry to convert RPM to spark would possibly damage the coils in the long run IMO. This module would have to replace the coils to even be useful from an electronics point of view. I'm sure someone else here may know more about this module than I would.
