is there a real benefit to doing this? this is the only picture i can find, obviously a drag car.

 

DIS’s provide substantial reliability and performance gains over distributed systems. There’s no cap and rotor to wear out, a worn cap and rotor causes weak spark and leads to hesitation under acceleration. There is also one less gap for the charge to jump, between the cap and rotor, and less spark plug wire for the voltage to travel, this means less resistance, less resistance yields stronger spark at the plug.

 

Also, having one coil per cylinder allows them (the coils) more time to cool down before the next spark so you can make them work harder reliably.

Nicely said I agree

Also it helps with cost for the car manufacturers besides who wouldn't mind 100,000 miles tune up intervals. Less waste too.

 

how much does somethin like that go for??? like a on B motor?

 

depends on the coils you want to go with, and you need something that will support the coil on plug system

 

I have been running the coil on plug conversion on my daily driven 00 civic SI for over a year now. I'm using coil sticks from a 01 honda 954(and I can still use my spark plug cover).
I'll take a picture later and post it up so you can see it.

I would like to see detailed pics

 

 

that is still not a true DIS system, my everyday driver (not a honda) has a DIS factory w/ no plug wires or coil. my set up has a wire harness comming from the main that goes into a "cassette" that sits right on top of the plugs eliminating even the resistance of wires. usually last around 200k if not longer. the signal is amplified in the cassette itself acting as a coil.

 

the most important feature of DIS over 1 coil is that with multiple coils you have a LOT more coil saturation time.

As the rpm increases the amount of time between the cyl. firing gets smaller; as does the amount of time that the coil has to recharge. Wich results in less spark quality output.
with 4 coils, well you cut that time in 4 so..

you must drive a saab. what year/model? i have sold 4 of them on ebay. they must be stupid expensive at the dealer to bring the prices that i get for them used with a DOA warranty.

also. the replacement cost for 6 coil packs on a subaru svx is 1400 dollars. that is what i pay for beater cars to drive around, not ignition coils. GM and Ford have been usin coil packs (not coil-on-plug) for about 20 years. why dosent honda? i just dunno.

last i checked the k series and the late model j series use coil on plug

 

i have a 99 viggen HOT <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by carnifex &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">you must drive a saab. what year/model? i have sold 4 of them on ebay. they must be stupid expensive at the dealer to bring the prices that i get for them used with a DOA warranty. </TD></TR></TABLE>

I believe MOTEC has a distributorless unit as well.

 

he is a pic of my C.O.P. conversion. I took this pic awhile ago.

 

what kinda of cop setup is that?

 

I'm using 4 honda 954 coil sticks with harness(modified) and the aem c2di running direct fire

 

bump for more info...

so im guessing that theres a wire in the dizzy that tells the coil to fire ...if i can find it (probly not hard)and run it to a electronic cdi for multi coils and then to the coil on plug setup or jut run 4 coils ..right ..
dam more sleepless nights

 

that is a cool set up, good work!

suby's have coils like that. r there any cons in doing this?

 

i would think the pros will outweight the cons, no more dying ignitors, no more misfires

the only con is that your limited to the type of spark you can run. you can only use nor-resistive plugs. I just denso IK-24's and there $16 each . what I do is I use really cheat plugs(bosh plugs for the VW GTI) to dial the fuel in and then use the denso's.

 

but they should last a long time right

 

forgot to ask about the wirring for the coil on plgus ,2000si

im assuming that of the 3 wires one is a chassi ground and assuming that one would be positve from the CDI and what woudl the other be for ?
thanks for the help
