Finally Going Single! Part 2 by cohbra

I meant to take more pics but I finally took the time to plumb the wastegate back into the exhaust pipe this week. Wow, what a pain in the a$$! It's so much more pleasant to drive now.

I should have some more updates coming in the next few days (hopefully). I will be installing the IGN-1A marine coils as soon as they arrive, along with some of the new plug wires that Sake Bomb Garage is making. I'm really hoping they will get rid of this miss I have at idle.

I started working on the wiring and mounting for my new coils. I decided to go with the IGN-1A coils due to the great things I've heard about them. Mounting them in the cruise control location is a bit of a challenge because of the limited amount of space, but I managed to squeeze them in. The mounting bracket is a little ugly at this point, but I'll clean it up and polish it before I permanently install it.

Put a polish on the bracket today and installed the coils on it. It's not the best polishing job I've ever done, but I'll probably clean it up more some time down the road when it's nice out. It's no fun sitting in a cold garage in the middle of winter in Colorado making black dust everywhere. I found some cool chrome spacers at my local hardware store that worked out perfectly for this.

Right now I can't plugin/unplug the harness without loosening up the nuts to make a little room between the coils, but I do have plenty of room to space them out some more. I just need to go back to the hardware store and get some more metric all-thread so I can replace my 1/4" spacers with the extra 3/8" ones I bought.
