I have an ignition expander off the M48 ECU, which runs to a 6 channel ignitor.
The coil packs now gets 12V from the Ignition switch, and the signals from the ignitor (6). I would like to remove the coil packs, and run COP using the same outputs from the ignitor. From what I am reading, this will work?

I am leaning towards the Kawa COP setup, two wire should be the way for me to go, I think?

Is there any negative drawbacks using these coils?
I think that's the $64,000 question with all our current ignitions. It all boils down to what the ignition drivers in the Kawa ignition feed to the Kawa COP coils. Are they using for "battery" voltage.....13.8vdc or a variation of an amplified DC Voltage.

Important point to remember too is if the intended coils(COP) impedance will have on the driving circuitry. I seem to remember a thread about Perma-tune ignitions burning out because the wrong coil was used??????
