I had a digital 6+ box go bad on me a little while ago. I just sent it to MSD and they are testing it for me. I will say their customer service has been excellent so far, of course I would prefer it never broke in the first place.......

I'd do a search, I know this has been discussed before.

The only complaint I had with my 6al was the engine started coming through my speakers when I revved. I was told it was a easy fix, cant rember what though never got to do it

I delt with their customer service when I got all the off road stuff for my truck and they were very helpfull

I have no complaints about my 6al (except finding a place to mount the damn thing under the hood)

I have a 6al also and so far no problems. Know what you mean about the mounting problem. I went from this;

to this;

because of this;


I like this set up much better.

Mines in the dash.. Took apart the glove box and put it in it's place.. Just ran the wires through the firewall wouldn't even know its there... Added a small (home desktop computer) fan in there to to help cool it off in the summer
