Wiring Ignition System

Post by renaldo »

How do I wire the ignition system on a 4age 20valve, using the stock dizzy as a trigger Wheel with coil pack?
What is needed to run the coil packs, and how is it hooked up?

A high level overview is...
Run MSnSE with 2nd input for mixed G1/G2 signals. Configure as a 12 tooth wheel

Run 2 VR conditioners with the appropriate resistors on the input to minimise cross talk between G1/G2 and the NE signal

Configure 2 spark outputs and drive 2 VB921 to for the 2 wasted spark coilpacks for cylinders 1+4 and 2+3. Which is connected where depends on your configuration of triggers to spark outputs

You may want to add additional components to drive the 3 wire IACV as well as the OEM knock sensor.

Making it happen then requires a bit more detail which you should be able to work out - I hope.
