Get World-Class Spark Energy with MSD Ultra 6A-Series Ignition Boxes

MSD’s legendary Digital 6-series Ignition Boxes are now available as the upgraded Ultra 6A-Series. Available in three versions, these capacitive-discharge ignitions are 60% smaller and 50% lighter than standard 6A boxes while packing a bigger spark punch. 

The Ultra 6A Ignition Boxes have these features:

  • New processor provides high efficiency with minimal heat and less current draw
  • 135-150mJ of spark energy at all RPMs
  • Quicken throttle response and improve starting
  • Maintain precise timing and accurate rev limiting
  • Tach output to drive an external tachometer
  • Fully protected against open coil, shorted coil, and open load
  • Connect to points and magnetic pickup distributors
  • Operate on most 7- to 28-volt electrical systems on 4-, 6-, and 8-cylinder engines with distributors

Ultra 6AL Ignition Boxes include all the same great features of the Ultra 6A boxes, plus:

  • Wireless control from a smartphone via the MSD Ultra 6AL mobile app
  • Settings for cylinder selection, step retard, launch RPM, burnout RPM, max RPM, and start retard values
  • Increased spark series duration lasts for 18 degrees of crankshaft rotation
  • Alerts and monitors available
  • Connects to points, magnetic pickups, and hall/crank-type distributors on 4-, 6-, and 8-cylinder engines
  • MSD CAN communication for easy connectivity to MSDView using a CAN-Bus Hub and Power Grid USB Controller
Ultra 6AL Plus Ignition Boxes up the ante even more with these additional features:
  • Onboard 4-BAR MAP sensor
  • Boost-dependent timing control up to 400 kPA (58 PSI)
  • Programmable timing curves that can be made in 2D plots or 3D tables from the MSD Ultra 6AL mobile app or MSDView on a laptop via the integrated USB port
  • Programmable launch timing
  • Able to program cylinder selection and start retard without a computer or app 
MSD Ultra 6A-Series Ignition Boxes are available in your choice of red or back finishes. MSD recommends using Blaster HVC or Blaster HVC-2 ignition coils for maximum spark output and high-RPM operation.
