I have installed the modded dist cap and coil on a non vtec ls before but never a gsr. So I need a detailed description of how to do this. Thanks,

what would be different about it?

 

Bump It has a "ballast resistor". I have no idea what it does or where it goes. Its whit colored and has two prongs, the kit includes a wire that has connectors that fir over the prongs, but there is two prongs, and two connectors. So what the hell good will it do? Any Ideas?

 

"Blaster Coils for points, electronic or MSD ignitions: With a stock points style ignition, a ballast resistor must be placed in-line with the positive terminal of the coil. The following Blaster Coils are supplied with a 0.8 ohm ballast resistor plus a terminal and boot to fit most applications. Mallory Unilite applications also require the ballast resistor."

Do I have a stock points style ignition? I am using the modded dist cap too.

Installation should be as shown in this diagram (PDF document), VTEC and non-VTEC alike.

I have the Blaster 2 coil, not the 6al box.

lol the coil only has a postive and a negative all u do is take out the stock coil and the route the wires from the stock ones to the new coil and also connect the new coil to the lil power tower thing on the dist cap

 

I had that figured out, but Im confused on the resistor ballast thingy. Look up there ^^^^, see that quote from a site saying I need to use it if I have a points style ignition. Do I have a points style ignition?

no, that's typically an old time muscle car thing.........you have electronic ignition

 

Thanks for the help.
