really the 1.8 coils quit with 4.5ms of dwell. I knew they weren't the most robust
but the 1.6l coils handle that no problem. I'm also heading down the path of COP plug will probably still run waste spark.

...the coils were hot as a **** after.I was also running 4ms of running dwell(& 4.5 of dwell), next time I'm starting w/ 2 ms.
Do you have any particular COP plans?
I'm still waiting for my VB921's to arrive, if your planning the same then order yours ASAP so your not waiting on $20.00 parts...

Thanks for the offer, My CBR coils finally arrived and Fit... just waiting on the VB921's, I want to try and blow up some more stuff first
Funny: Driving across the garage on two cylinders, giving it more throttle and thinking some how the other ignitor will reincarnate...Good thing the other ignitor blew before I actually made it out of the garage...It was alot easier to push back into its corner...

CBR coils didn't work out...
So I spent another $125.00 some GM coils, same results..
car doesn't fire until you stop cranking... tried 6 or so different configs and couldn't figure it out.
Ordered a new stock coil pack today, didn't ask how much, really don't want to know...

Jefe, try getting some DSM coils and run those. They have great spark. You could also set dwell to 2ms and keep checking the coil temp. If it gets hot shut it down and try using the pull up. I'm ordering a v3 kit for my 99 I'll let you know how it goes.

I just bought some Neon coils (same as used in the Eclipses) for 10$ and I'm going to use the setup on the MSnS page with 2 VB921s. This sounds like the cheapest alternative to me, especially with the success of these coils on the MSEFI forums.
