if you want edis you have to install a 36-1 trigger wheel on the crank. sometimes this is easy, most times it isnt. it looks like the j35 has an remote damper (ie the mass of the accessoris do the damping) so it cannot be attached to the piece that the belt rides on it has to be bolted and welded to the center of the damper. bolted to make sure everything lines up, welded to make sure it dosnt go anywere.
to grind some teeth off and run with the trigger wheels and vr sensors that are already there, you'll need a bosch COP driver or half the twelve-pack driver. its hard for me to tell from the pictures but the coils do not look internaly driven. 2-pin = extrnal driver, 3-pin = internal driver. mabye theres some oem honda manuals on the i-net that can tell you more.
from the little bit of research i did, it seemed that most of them were DBW and no distibutor.
this is whut i am basing most of this on.
http://cl.acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?p=14153193http://www.msextra.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=131&t=39347from what i could tell the j32 has a 12-0 and j35 has a 24-2 trigger wheel but you should be able to turn either one into a 4-0+1 and make it work.
i keep bringing up the edis option because it is sure fire, and if you grind the shit out of your oem triggers and just cant make it work you can just slap the 36-1 onto the crank pully and not have to mess with it. i not trying to sway you one way or the other im just saying that alot of the more sucessful ms jobs ive seen will go this way when there is an odd ball trigger involed.
ms can sync with the 36-1 directly (no edis bullshit) though the vr input. you may still need the coil drivers, but you'll have your rev limits and 2-step back. and you wont have a big fat ford coil pack and
rig spark plug wires hanging off your engine.
more over what im getting at is, there dosnt seem to be anyone who has accually completed one of these projects using ms. i may very well be wrong because it seems they have supported it in the new firmware, but i cant find an example anywere, which would leed me to believe it has not been done. and there for no one with real knowlege on how to do it. all i can really do is lay out some options...
36-1 crank trigger wheel =
good- works for sure, has rev limits
bad- need to find coil driver
36-1 and edis =
good- works for sure, sync's well
bad- must fit ford coil pack and make wires, no rev limits other then 11,000.
4-0+1 =
good - no trigger wheel to fuck with, has rev limits, will do sequental and some other cool stuff
bad - DOSNT WORK FOR SURE, nothing sucks more then driving around in a car that wont sync.
a had a laugh when i found this.
