This view of man has rarely been expressed in human history. Today, it is virtually non-existent. Yet this is the view with which—in various degrees of longing, wistfulness, passion and agonized confusion—the best of mankind’s youth start out in life. It is not even a view, for most of them, but a foggy, groping, undefined sense made of raw pain and incommunicable happiness. It is a sense of enormous expectation, the sense that one’s life is important, that great achievements are within one’s capacity, and that great things lie ahead.

It is not in the nature of man—nor of any living entity—to start out by giving up, by spitting in one’s own face and damning existence; that requires a process of corruption, whose rapidity differs from man to man. Some give up at the first touch of pressure; some sell out; some run down by imperceptible degrees and lose their fire, never knowing when or how they lost it. Then all of these vanish in the vast swamp of their elders who tell them persistently that maturity consists of abandoning one’s mind; security, of abandoning one’s values; practicality, of losing self-esteem. Yet a few hold on and move on, knowing that that fire is not to be betrayed, learning how to give it shape, purpose and reality. But whatever their future, at the dawn of their lives, men seek a noble vision of man’s nature and of life’s potential.

Don't give me the answers yet, I will put forth some effort first.
Start with the FM ls2 coil install guide which should be on their website, then start looking at the MS documentation.

Why LSx coils on an N/A build? I understand you want sequential ignition, so why not just go with the Toyota COPs? Its well proven, easier to mount and probably easier to find.

Not questioning the hardware, just wondering about the decision process. Obviously either would get the job done.

I have a jack. I cant fit a lift, ceiling is too low. I might do a scissor lift thing.

Correct. Everyone tells me to gut it, no one else has to drive it to and from the track. I have no heater nor AC, give me a ******* break.

161hp and a 205mm tire = TTD, son. Hell ******* yes, with two points to spare.

This implies that you have dyno'ed this beast?

I have a dyno from the MS1 computer which I considered a "Barrett Jackson tune". It ran fine on the track, sort of, terrible at part throttle. It will make more power now so I'm looking into getting a restrictor plate made because I assume it will make significantly more than the 157whp it dyno's previously. The additions in output I suspect will come from a more accurate CKP/CMP, TPS enrichment allowing me to run greater spark values, and EV14/sequential fuel to more bang and more spark angle.

Why not just reduce spark angle instead of a restrictor plate?
