the whole 16 and 18 volt deal is from people that can not or will not wire a
car properly. They seem to lose track of the voltage losses due to poor
connections and using the wrong gauge wire for the load. An MSD will run
from about 10 to 16 volts just fine.. An inductive system needs to be at
around 13.7 for best perfomance the same goes for fuel injectors and pumps
as well.
