Elise S2 - Magnecor KV85 Ignition Leads

Elise S2 (2001 on)

Magnecors KV85 Competition (8.5mm) and R-100 Racing (10mm) Ignition Cables feature Magnecors exclusive 2.5mm high capacity Metallic Inductance EMI Suppressed conductor consisting of stainless steel wire precisely wound at 200 turns per inch over a ferrimagnetic core. The insulating jacket is made entirely of Magnecors exclusive TC-1500-HS high strength aerospace grade silicone rubber, and its single layer construction will prolong the jackets insulating ability by conducting extreme heat away from hot-spots that occur near over-the-limit heat sources.

The KV85 8.5mm jacket has a service heat resistance of 600 degrees F (320 degrees C) and up to 1,000 degrees F (540 degrees C) for short burst 3 minutes. The R-100 10mm jacket has a service heat resistance of 700 degrees F (380 degrees C) and up to 1,200 degrees F (650 degrees C) for short burst 3 minutes. Even if limits are exceeded, the silicone rubber will retain its insulating ability until leads are removed from engine.

Magnecor Race leads are primarily designed and constructed to be used in applications where it is essential to prevent the possibility of ignition leads compromising engine performance. Modern race engines, modified street engines and stock street engines which rely on electronic devices to control the function of either or both the ignition and fuel systems are prone to interference from all other spiral conductor ignition leads sold through performance parts outlets, none of which can provide proper suppression for EMI, particularly if a high-output ignition system is used.
