i would say a 2-3, but get the wiring adapter, that made it really easy. i would say the 6al box, the tfi coil, the new wires and cap, took about a total of 2 hours. some where in that range. i had to extend all the wires because of where i put the box. other than that nothing was to bad.

Cool maybe you had a real problem with your ignition cause no one really notices a power gain. Come back in two weeks and tell us how your gas milage was affected

i have no idea what kind of fuel economy i get, dont keep tabs on it. however, i do believe i feel a difference in the performance. could be partily due to the new wires and cap & rotor. but when i get into now, the power from 3000-6000 rpms, seems to pull harder than before, who knows, could be nothing, but i like it.
