Which ignition box 6A or 6AL ?

Blaster 2 coil or Blaster 3 coil ?

And how difficult is it to hook up the ignition box?

Thanks all in advance, I did a search but still alittle confused.

6AL and the blaster 2 coil ftw....they help out idle

opinion: I do not think you will benefit much with MSD on a FI Honda. The only reason to do it would be more flexability with rev limit adjustment. You really do not want too much afterburn with a controlled fuel inj system,
+The Blaster 3 is the same as the 2 except for the raised tower that reduces secondary arcing to primary terminals. When choosing an aftermarket coil it is good to make sure the turns ratio is close to OEM on the vehicle app.
6AL has the sputter box for the coolness
Quote Motorbooks Workshop...Dyno testing has yet to show any marked improvement in horsepower for aftermarket ign in these cars.

go 6al if you want the adjustable rev limiter, 6a if not
easy to install, 6wires ground and hot, 2 to the coil and 2 to the dist

I do see how MSD could improve idle quality, but that is not hp.
I could also see how low speed torque could improve.
