You need a distributor that's got a vacuum on it to alter the timing on positive pressure (boost)

Where you' get one from now I have no idea but they do exist.

Why not run it off Megajolt?

After all the faffing about of getting a saab dizzy vacuum module, and fitting that to the dizzy. Modifying the dizzy to change the advance characteristics... etc..
Fitting Megajolt would probably work out better.
Totally mapable and certainly easier to get your mitts on.

ahh ok never even crossed my mind that actualy! don't usualy like that sort of stuff tho as know nothing about it.

I have a few turbo parts that I'm trying to sell which might be of use,

EMS5 turbo ignition as mentioned in the above the posts, complete with wiring and instruction


I also have found this in my shed, i purchased it many years ago with a turbo crossflow engine which came with a box of spares, the part numbers check out as a fiesta distributor but the unit on the side is a saab turbo retard/advance vac, condition unknown.
