Default Ignition and PCV Setup

hey all,
I have searched but cant seem to find what im after.
I've got a EG civic, b18c SiR conversion, and Full Race GT turbo kit.

1. What options do i have in regards to upgrading the ignition setup? and will it give much gains if any?

2. What sort of PCV setup is best for a Turbocharged Honda motor? Is the fact that mine is stock atm, the reason why when i up the boost to 9psi, it blows the spark plug leads off the dizzy?

thanks
Christian

PS if people could post their setups as a reference that'd be awsome!

step 1, zip tie the plug wires to the dizzy.

as far as ign system, plenty are going fast with stock.
back in the day i went with the 6al for being able to change the launch parameters. i was on s200 at the time. no access to a chip burner and all that good stuff.

now on the 300, i only use the 6al for the ign cdi. 50% love it 50% hate it 50% are nut swingers that go the way that everyone else does. either way hahaa.

i havent had any issues with a 6al, balster ss, and an msd cap.

as far as pcv, well either way, whats your goal? i have seen the endyn be ok for moderate power levels. i swear by the t1 setup. never an issue with my car.

awsome dude! thanks for that.
So its not anything bad that makes the Leads blow off?


would running an external coil benefit me in any way?

any hotter coil will let you run a looser gap. i need to step up to the hvc eventually. but i have had success with the blaster ss.

if you run the ign box to the inside of the dizzy like i did, running an external coil is an easier way to do it, as there would have to be 4 wires coming in and out of the dizzy.

im sure there are other ways to do it, but thats they way i have always done it.

are the plug wires popping off the dizzy or out of the spark plug holes?
