Default Will MSD 2 STEP work on my 1991 BMW 318is?

Our ignition is a little different, its like a coil on plug, but the coil is separate and it's all in one, instead of individually, what else would I need to make it work, if it's even possible, thanks.

No.
Why do you want a 2 step system? Is there a need for it?
I'm just asking out of curiosity. Hell, I've got a '90 325is.

It won't work. Period. Unless you go to a stand alone ECU that supports it.
His motor (M42) uses individual coil packs. No distributor at all. Everything is controlled via the ECU using the crank sensor and cam sensor.

for more information go to www.e30tech.com or www.r3vlimited.com

Not exactly. They do use a single coil to power a fixed distributor though (no distributor based spark adjustments - all done by the computer).

^ F*** you!! this is a place for hondas and acuras, not a place for bimmers

Rules


8. This is honda-tech.com, a place for sharing information about Honda and Acura cars. This isn't the place for information about wheels and tires for your grandmother's Buick or your son's Mustang; there are other websites that specialize in those cars, where people will have more specific expertise with those cars than here.


someone ban this guy hahaha
