Never even heard of that one. What is happening to make you think weak spark? What mods do you have that require an ignition box? Typically they are what causes ignition gremlins. On a stock to mild engine you don't even need one.

Just remove the added ignition box so it can run good again. You can reach a block splitting power level with the stock ignition and without an added ignition box.

Ask me how I know

What I put on my car was an Axcell rev limiter [ only] no additianal spark, but after it was installed, the car had poor throttle response ,and would sometimes pop at idle

I did but I realy wanted my own rev limmiter, I dont know if my factory rev limmiter even works, I have missed a shift before and never heard it.

IM afraid of throwing a rod trying to find the stock rev limmiter

Guess that all depends.... Is your Axcell rev limmiter being used in conjunction with an Eldelbrock intake?

Have you tried calling Accel, the ignition equip manufacturer? Or is this some cheap Chinese knock off calling themselves Axcell ? Seems to me that the equipment manufacturer would be the best source for that question whoever they call themselves now days.
And did you install a rev limiter, or a rev limmiter?

Maybe it's the extra "m" that's causing the engine to miss?

Just sayin.
