   One question: From reading your message above, it sounds to me as if you
were stock, and then you added the shorties and the MSD, and your E/T dropped.
Is that accurate, or did you actually test the E/T before and after both the
shorties and the MSD?
   The reason I ask is, if you did them both at the same time, its possible
that you were 16.3, added the MSD and were then a 16.4 or 16.5, and then
the shorties pulled it down to the 15.6... Without the MSD, you might've
been runnning 15.4 or 15.5 before the K&N.

  Unless its a huge pain in the butt, you might want to try a couple of runs
on the stock ignition to see if the MSD is actually helping or hindering you.
