    What engine management / IG box are you using? I have only used the pencil coils a couple times and their newer stuff has worked well for me.

    I am currently using the Honda 990 coils in my car and they work great coupled with the M&W.

    Its a hondata ecu. Tuned on chrome i think.

    all i can really say is im done with the dizzy setup. This kit makes everything so much easier.

    I just need somebody to kinda walk me through what i need and what specs to get and where to get them.

    Cause im sure its not a one size fits all right?

    You can not run COP with Crome or Hondata S1/2/300. I think you should go back and look at what you have currently because that does not make any sense....Tuned on Crome, Hondata ecu.

    Well, You can not run the Honda base ecu for B/D-series with COP.

    You can only run COP with a stand alone, ie AEM EMS. I think the correct AEM pencil coils for the B series is the short ones.

    My setup is as follows:
    AEM EMS (Stand-alone)
    AEM EPM
    AEM Twin-Fire Ignition Box
    CBR Coil packs

    The car isnt done yet, Im taking my time on the build. Its a CRX and nothing will go untouched.
    Here a pic of the setup as it is:
