MSD??

i was just wodering if anyone has installed an MSD unit on our cars. i know that MSD's are excellent bolt ons for previous civics, but considering our distributorless ignition system i don's know if it is compatible. if anyone has installed it...

1. how did you hook it up?

2. was it worth it?

you cant do it without completely re-configuring your entire ignition system. youd have to rewire every thing and intall a distributor...

that's strange because Mitsubishi technicas dont's hve distributors and they can use MSD 6Al's.

are you sure ther's no way to hook it up? or maybe an MSD unit designed for distributor less ignitions.

You can try MSD but you will find nothing for the 7th gens. We have a coil pack on top of each
sparkplug. I have talked with MSD since I would like to program the RPMs for a good launch on the 1/4 mile, but they said that they have not engineered anything for us.
