excellence shenanigans?

Can someone point out to me the twin plug igniton on the car on page 140 of the November 2005 issue. It says a twin plug cap and dual blue coils but I dont see that. Am I blind or is this a mistake?

Four plug wires and one black coil. I was interested to see it after the artical talked about a home brewed twin plug set up. I guess Home brew twin plug looks like a factory single plug.

I believe the twin plug setup was done after the pictures were taken, which were taken by someone else a while before I wrote the story. Though thats a good point. You guys are a tough crowd!
