123 Ignition Distributor 009 Tune (USB) 123/TUNE-4-R-V-V

Classic Aircooled VW Distributors parts by Limebug

Programming your ideal advance curve? The 123 Ignition Distributor 009 Tune (USB) enables you to do so. Just using a USB cable and PC/Laptop. So if you want to tune your engine or have an engine that does not have a standard distributor available… the 123 Ignition Tune can help you out, you can easily setup to fulfill even the most demanding requirements.

The unit offers two sets of curves that can be selected by placing power on the yellow wire from the 123 Distributor. By using this function you will be able to switch between two pre-programmed curves without having to use a computer. Particularly apt when you are (also) driving on LPG.

This model will replace most Bosch distributors, for example used on VW T1, T2 and Type 3 Engines.
