D16 SOHC VTEC and Non-VTEC Pro Series Crank Trigger Kit (not compatible with JDM D16ZC DOHC)

It is time to move into the 21st century and say so-long to the OEM Honda distributor! Honda motors with distributors mounted at the end of the intake camshaft are notorious for ignition timing drift especially at high load, high power, high rpm and even more pronounced with valvetrain upgrades. This is often caused by a combination of timing belt stretch, belt harmonics, valve train loads and the clearance of the mechanical drive on the distributor! Good bye to dead distributors and good bye to scattered ignition timing!

Building on the success of our B-Series Pro Trigger Kit released in 2021, 5-0 Ignite is the O.G. in modernising the D-Series ignition system. As the market leading complete trigger system, our D16 crank and cam trigger kit delivers unmatched crankshaft position accuracy compared to any camshaft-only based system available today. Designed for precision, reliability, and performance, it’s an essential upgrade for any serious D16 build.

Options:

50IGNDSERIESTRIGOBD1K - To suit OBD1 D16 SOHC (VTEC and Non-VTEC)

50IGNDSERIESTRIGOBD2K - To suit OBD2 D16 SOHC (VTEC and Non-VTEC)

Our kit features:

✔ Unlike other D series trigger kit on the market, our kit allows you to run power steering, AC and any cam gear you wish. OBD1 and OBD2 kit both retains the lower timing cover, however, the OBD1 kit requires minor cutting of the lower timing belt cover to clear the trigger wheel (refer to photo above).

✔ Allows you to run coil on plug (COP) setup.

✔ Clean Slate ‘OEM’ Look CNC Machined Billet Aluminium 6061 Enclosed Cam Sensor Cover with Dress Up Washers. Pre-set and Ready to Install.

✔ Some variants of the D16 comes with press-fit cam drive key on the distributor that is not transferrable to the new cam sensor unit. Therefore, the kit comes with new cam drive key pre-installed on the cam sensor unit, ready to go.

✔ Integrated Trigger Teeth on Supplied Crank Timing Sprocket, Zinc Plated For Corossion Resistance. Fits like OEM and Compatible with OEM and Any Aftermarket Balancer.

✔ Includes replacement long square crankshaft sprocket/pulley key.

✔ 36-2+1 Trigger Setup Compatible with most Modern/Capable Aftermarket ECU such as Haltech Elite, Link, Emtron, Motec, FuelTech etc. (regardless of OBD series)

✔ Genuine Hall Effect Sensors for Crank and Cam Home

✔ Wiring Connectors Supplied

✔ All Installation Fasteners Supplied

✔ Full Instructions Supplied (refer to 'Installation Guide' tab above). Professional Installation is Highly Recommended.

!  It is required to power up the sensors via regulated power source such as your ECU's 5V or 8V output (NOT from the ECU's 12V input from the main relay). Even though the sensors are new from factory, we bench test each sensor prior to dispatch to ensure that it is 100% in working order. The warranty does not cover damaged sensor(s) from incorrect wiring, physical damage or from not using a regulated power source to power the sensors.

!  Fitment to other D series variant such as D14 and D15 are currently unverified.

!  You may need to assign one ECU output to the OEM instrument cluster for RPM gauge read out.

!  NOT Compatible with PowerFC or any ECU that utilises OEM Honda Board i.e. Hondata, Crome, Neptune etc. It is far more cost effective to run full standalone ECUs that gives you more features/tuning parameters off the box than buying an ECU that relies on 30 year old Honda board and only have to spend more to buy add-on modules for COP or trigger conversion.

Benefits includes tuner’s confidence in maximising ignition timing whilst keeping consistent engine safety margin. Suitable for all Honda D16 VTEC and non-VTEC. A MUST for all valued, high revving, forced inducted or naturally aspirated D16 builds!
