Default Supercharging and wasted spark ignition.
I was wondering if anyone knows if there would be a problem using a wasted spark ignition system on a supercharged engine. In my thoughts the chance for an intake charge being ignited would be increased with this type of system. Is anyone running this type of ignition on a currently supercharged 928?
