ms3x with honda k20 coils

Post by swifty35 »

Hi all has anyone used the honda k20 coils with the ms3x? And if yes is there anything e.g resistors or particular setting that need to be placed into the ms3x setting for them to work?

They work just fine with the 3X drivers, no additional hardware needed.
