[DeTomaso] Counterfiet MSD boxes

[Mikael]

Buy ICE from Australia. Look at their website why they're better than MSD. Their customer service is as MSD once was, great. MME Racing has their stuff in the US, probably a lot others as well. (I can change my 2 step rev limiter settings and my advance curve electronically from my seat, no PC necessary). The car starts when I just look at the ignition key. Just my $0.02
