Internal to External Coil Conversion

[acura32tl &91ex]

ok, I have a turbo f22a. It is on my 91 accord that came with the internal ignition coil. I converted it to external using the stock distributor. I now suspect a faulty ignitor because it wont start sometimes. I want to know if I bought a brand new one for a 92-93 accord that had the external coil if it would work? I know i would have to run some wires but I dont like the look on non stock conversions. I would rather use the distributor that was meant for an external coil rather than hacking up a new one. Does anybody agree? I am running uberdata also!!!! thanx

If you suspect a faulty Igniter, then just replace the Igniter in the dizzy you already have in there. You can buy them separate and are quite easy to replace.

Ya, I was going to do that but if you ever converted a 90-91 to an external coil than you know running the wires from the dizzy to the coil can suck. I just want to have a cleaner look than what I have now its not that I am having problems but I hate seeing 2 wires hangin' out of my dizzy. it looks cheap. and there is no other way to route the wires I must avoid my charge pipes and the airfilter for my turbo inlet!!!!!!

All I want to know is if uberdata will read the sensors from 92-93 accord external coil distributor. or will it not function properly doing so?

PM Midnite Racer X, he the man for ECU Tuning. If he don't know no one will.

ya it works i have a ext coil dizzy on my car with int coil harness but i would really suggest just converting the dizzy cuz if i could do it again i would do it that way looks a lot cleaner if you put ext coil dizzy on it you just tap into wires and it think thats ugly ill try and get pics of the uglyness

Out of Interest, Why is the External Coil better than the Internal Coil for you guys. Our JDM CB7's in OZ have all got internal coils. I'm yet to see one with an external coil. Is it due to the availability of modded coils or just a thing to have external coils?
The Internal Coil is a much neater setup and less prone to crossfire from the coil lead.
I haven't had any problems with my internal coil setup.

Only advantage I see is being able to use a more powerful aftermarket external coil easier....

The internal coil is pretty ineffecient once you start heavily modding.

Well the reason I converted is so I could run a high output coil due to the fact that with my internal coil I had to close the spark plug gap to 0.0028" and when I got the external coil from blaster i opened it up to 0.0036" and I got a lil' more power from my turbocharged f22a

I am pretty sure 2point6 is still running a stock internal coil distributor and he is putting down 260WHP with 12-1 compression. The stock ignition systems are pretty strong, even the internal coils. I remember reading a post on here somewhere where somebody asked him why he didn't run something after market, and he said that it didn't make a difference.

Well say if you have a turbocar id find it more beneficial when you tune it rich. That way youll get a slight better gas efficiency that the usual stock coil setup which means more miles by the gallon when it burns more complete.

Are the letters on your keyboard worn off or something because it's so fucking hard to decipher your posts.
BTW: What does tuning it rich have to do with what type of coil setup is used.

Just to confirm, 2point6 does use a stock ignition system and NGK wires. I've talked to him regarding this. He says it works fine for him and he said it was more reliable.

im on my sidekick and trying to work at the same time so if you have a hard time deciphering my posts then something must be wrong with you altogether. If you cant determine just a regular typo if you know what i mean and dont make ms2.2 do to you what she did to ricky i can arrange that. And as for the tuning it rich part the coil part itself is for more for fine tuning if you decide to go aftermarket to make it more performance wise in upgrading for more power. If you got a problem with that i dont really give a shit thankyou . This has been another sparkle get off my dick productions sorry no check or f22guru cods becuase he should just leave it alone.

Yes, and typo's are quite regular. Can't you just take a joke as a joke and not get your panties in a twist.
