listen i really cant recall, but i think you would have to put like a couple of msd's on a rotary because of the ignition, but i could be wrong.

I want to do that direct fire setup but not too sure on how to run the wiring on it.I have the extra ignitor and lots of wiring lying around here.Just need another coil.

j9fd3s have you tried this DLIDFIS ignition setup on your ride? It sounds very promising and it sounds fairly simple to do.

I know people who have it on thier cars and say it is night and day difference.I want to hook mine up so I can get rid of the loud *** cannon blast everytime I shut the car off when its warm.Having no cats has disadvantages like that but when you upgrade to direct fire all those problems get fixed.

Could someone post a "BEFORE" wiring diagram, so that I know exactly which wires to put where on the AFTER? It would make it mucho simpler.

Or better yet if someone here does that take before, during and after pics so I can have a better idea...
