RE: Hot MKI article

["Ewan Hopkins" <ewanhopkins@hotmail.com>]

<x-flowed>There is the k-star system which can be used to re-map fuel and/or ignition. 
A company called milford microsystems do it and it can be bought from them 
or through agencies in the UK like TSR.
Milford have a site at http://www.milford.ndirect.co.uk/
They market it as specifically suited to K/KE-JET setups.
