dwell is the coil on time (primary side) when the processor gives it power before breaking it. The dwell is how long the coil is "on" saturated, before the circuit is opened inducing the secondary spark to fire the plugs. Less dwell time (primary on time) creates less of a magnetic field in the primary coil, which will induce a smaller voltage in the secondary. If you have MSD ignition and coil, though, you don't really need as much dwell time because the system is designed for multiple spark discharge which has small dwell time anyway. On stock engines, though, removing the spout may not work because it's designed to have a certain dwell at a certain engine speed/load, it's worth a try because there's no harm in the consequences. I just didn't hear any negatives to the spout theory, thought i'd be the party pooper
