EDIS Question

Post by ThreeEyedBandit »

I am currently running MS-I with MSnS-E code and am wanting to go to the ford EDIS for ignition, but here is my question. Is the 6 cylinder EDIS setup going to care that is is on a three cylinder turbocharged engine? I figure the wasted spark wont care, and dont think the firmware will.

Hi Matt -

You are correct on all counts, however the EDIS coils will care, so be sure to ground the 2nd terminal of each coil to avoid damaging them. You could also use single terminal or COP coils instead.

Cool, I will most likely go the COP route then.
