Why mess with rock solid reliability?

Increased performance? Just asking.

Actually, I'm asking primarily because of the EGR problems that LC owners suffer. I figure a stronger ignition may be able to reduce clogging of EGR simply because of enhanced efficiency thus less unburned fuel entering the intake. Just a thought.
You mean like a push-button ignition? You see it on sand rails and some tractors so it's out there.
Edit: maybe the tractor was a knob of some sort - can't remember.

The cure you are looking for is a V8. Actually, there is a thread going on right now concerning a 1fz imported from down south that has coil packs. Perhaps that's an ignition upgrade.
I'm just happy that mine runs flawlessly at 272k with no leaks and no oil consumption. Going fast was the last thing on my mind when I bought a landcruiser.

Keep in mind that the newest 80 is 20 years old. Who knows exactly how long it's been since the egr system was serviced on a particular vehicle.

My MSD 6al is not installed yet but i think it will work great on the 1fzfe.
