Hey Neil, I recently installed the same plugs in the car; they are only 3 days old at most. The MSD 8.5 wires are supposed to have the lowest resistance of any wires, so I am hoping that it isn't in the wires.
I will take a look at the plugs tomorrow and see if I can find anything. I guess I should also take a look at the settings on the unit to see if I have something set wrong. Now that I think about it though, I wonder if the two-step limiter is causing a problem when I shift. Since the limiter is connected to my clutch pedal, it is possible that when I am shifting at the upper RPM's that maybe the limiter is kicking in when the pedal is depressed and the MSD is dropping spark...something to look into anyways.
