          A beige DAF44 classic car
          I own a DAF 44 for 20 years now. Always trying to figure out why the engine doesn’t run smoothly, tried everything until I came across your solution.

          Today I made the drive of my life, almost with tears in my eyes, thanks to a new 123 ignition. Runs like Swiss clockwork, truly incredible!!!

          Zafer Özkavlak DAF44 owner
          For the first time of It’s life since the engine was rebuilt this car is able to start at once to climb the ribs without any pop and bang.
          And the best thing with this ignition system is that I can set up a special curve corresponding to my way of driving the car and to my wheel of behaviour I want from this engine now it’s a very great pleasure to start up the engine and just hearing it screaming !!

          This state of the art ignitor is just amazing and reliable !!!

          Kastor Citroën SM owner
          The results are excellent, all the problems I thought were the carburator are solved with the 123ignition.

          The engine, with about 500.000 km, improved the performance a lot. I did some tuning but not enough.

          I never got to the point where the engine begins the knocking. The idle is also very smooth. The lack of power at de beginning of the acceleration was gone, also the one when the second part of the carburator starts to work, you have done a great job.
