Default S&S IST Ignition..Anyone know anything?

Has anyone ever used the S&S IST...Intelligent Spark Technology ignition?

From what I'm reading, this appears to be a pretty trick ignition.

Anyone have any real world info on it???

I'm spark knocking like a **** and from what I'm reading, this ignition adjusts the timing on the fly.

Haven't used it, and have only seen a little posted about it(on another forum)- mainly complaints of failures on custom bikes (it was a chopper forum). What ignition are you using now? Something adjustable?

I've got a Daytona TwinTec set to it's most retarded initial timing and advance curve andI still get a little knocking from about 2300 to 2900 rpms (95" high comp pistons, 37G cams). If you try the S&S, let us know how it goes.
