They are bullet proof and easily upgradable. And, there is a guy that I found who was the lead engineer on this stuff at Mallory and he does repairs. My motto is never comp and never ever MSD but that is just me. Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

It has enough juice to stop your heart should you ground yourself and make contact with the coil. DAMHIK.

If you still have the box and want to fix it, PM me and I'll give you the info for the guy who fixes them. It took me a bit to hunt him down, but his prices are very good, and he says he can repair most anything that can be done to kill the. Also, if you still have it and want to sell it PM me on that too. Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

I got my Grid through Summit and for now can do everything I need with just the 7720 & 7730, program it with the laptop so don't need any added piggyback acc. Got mine through Summit with racer discount, 10% off and $50 back special gift card from MSD I was at $653. I will also add I am running the Grid with my MSD Pro Power coil as the MSD tech said it would be fine and I didn't need to buy the specific one that MSD called out for the grid, this is just a FWIW Last edited by Keith Richards; 04/22/16 09:44 PM.
