Run a new distributor on your classic Porsche!  This distributor has the design character of the original, but with modern electronics. The 123 distributors have been around for over a decade, but they were challenging to set up properly for Porsche models. Until now!

Comes pre-loaded with our exclusive programming for your stock engine. Our programs for each year and sub-model were developed and tested by a Porsche-trained mechanic, engine builder, and ignition specialist with 34 years of experience. 

This distributor is pre-programmed to replace the Bosch BR18,  0.231.129.022 or 0.231.129.031 distributors installed on the 356 B, C, SC, and 912. (For 1968-69 USA 912 models with vacuum retard, see our listing for the "061" pre-programmed distributor). Please note that any changes to the stock programming are made at your own risk. This distributor is not intended for fuel injected engines.

For modified engines, a qualified, insured mechanic should be employed to adjust the programming to the engine. Incorrect setup or installation can result in severe damage to the engine and distributor.

When properly re-programmed, this distributor can also be set up for other 356 or 912 engines up to 1969. An Apple or Android App allows for wireless adjustment of the ignition curve and provides an electronic dashboard. Range is 500-8K RPM. Other key features include rev-counter, anti-theft PIN code, real time tuning, vacuum advance, and soft rev limiter.

As with all electrical products, this item is non-returnable except for manufacturer pre-approved warranty returns. Arrangements for repairs or warranty service must be made directly with the manufacturer.

Aftermarket
Our founders have worked on Porsche cars for decades. They've tried most of our aftermarket products first hand on real cars. Some parts are no longer made by an O.E.M company, or the price difference between genuine and aftermarket has become so large that it makes sense to take the savings. If you have any questions about an aftermarket product, please contact us.
